Arnott acquires JRi Shocks

Arnott has acquired JRi Shocks. The acquisition enables Arnott to expand its air suspension product portfolio within the SEMA performance market to reach additional customers including street cars, Jeep vehicles, trucks, motorcycles and UTVs. JRi Shocks will continue to serve its existing markets and customers. Customers should see no change in the day-to-day operations of the business, the companies say.

JRi Shocks is known for its shock absorber technology, which has a history of championship performance in various forms of motorsports, the company says. Founded in 2007 by Jeff Ryan, the company was co-owned by Ryan, Det Cullum and NASCAR Hall of Fame crew chief and team owner Ray Evernham at the time of the acquisition. Ryan will stay on to continue managing all engineering activities for the company, while Cullum and Evernham will remain involved with the company in advisory roles.
