The APG-3850BG is the Afco 5” stroke double adjustable "Big Gun" valved coil-over shock. This shock has bearing eyelets on both ends and is designed to work with a 12” long X 2.5” ID coil over spring (spring is not included with the shock). The 3850BG has a collapsed height of 11.9” and a fully extended height of 16.9”. The 3850BG-part number is for an individual shock and does not include a coil over spring.
The "Big Gun" valved shocks use the same basic shock components as the Eliminator series but the valving in the "Big Gun" is setup to better control the "hit" to the tires on high horsepower (over 1000 horsepower) slick tire cars.
Note: we have shown a standard image of the shock; actual shock appearance may vary due to recent color combination changes with the shocks.

By allowing full control over both compression and rebound forces, this shock gives the tuner the ability to fine tune every aspect of chassis movement to provide the ultimate in acceleration control and overall drivability.
