Gas damping is the headline here: the RAW 4x4 G6008Y is a nitrogen-charged Nitro-series shock absorber listed to fit the Ford Maverick and Nissan Y60 Patrol ute and cab-chassis.

What does a nitro-gas shock do differently?

A nitrogen-charged damper keeps the oil inside under pressure, which helps resist the foaming (cavitation) that fades a shock's control on long, rough corrugations. On a leaf-sprung 4x4 like the Y60 Patrol that means more consistent body control over washboard tracks and when the ute is carrying weight. The G6008Y is the Nitro-series take on that for this platform.

Where does this shock sit on the vehicle?

A shock absorber's job is to damp the spring — it controls how fast the spring compresses and rebounds rather than carrying the load itself. On the Maverick and Y60 Patrol it works alongside the springs to settle the body after bumps. The exact axle position and quantity needed are confirmed against your build, since utes and cab-chassis can run different combinations front to rear.

Is the G6008Y right for my Maverick or Patrol?

It's listed to fit the Ford Maverick and Nissan Y60 Patrol in ute and cab-chassis form — the same shared platform under both badges. Send your exact model and we'll confirm the G6008Y suits your end of the car and whether you need a pair or a full set.

Fitting at our Illawarra workshop

Oak Flats Muffler Men replaces 4x4 shocks in-house across the Illawarra. We inspect the bushes and mounts, fit the G6008Y, and settle the suspension so it tracks straight before you drive away.

Stocked and fitted by Oak Flats Muffler Men, the Illawarra exhaust and 4x4 specialist in Oak Flats, NSW.

Common questions

What does the 'Nitro' in this shock mean?
It's a nitrogen gas-charged shock absorber. The gas charge helps the damper resist fade on long corrugated tracks. RAW 4x4 supplies it; we fit it.
Does the G6008Y fit the Ford Maverick and Nissan Y60 Patrol?
Yes — it's listed to fit both the Maverick and the Y60 Patrol ute and cab-chassis, which share a platform. Confirm your exact build with the workshop first.
Should I replace shocks in pairs?
Generally yes, so both sides of an axle behave the same. We'll confirm how many you need for your setup when you bring it in.
