Construction & Design

The 2.5-inch diameter shock body enhances heat dissipation, reducing fade during prolonged use. The Internal Floating Piston (IFP) separates the oil from nitrogen gas inside the shock, preventing aeration and ensuring consistent damping performance. The High-Temperature Oil (HTO) used in these shocks is specially formulated to maintain viscosity and performance even under extreme heat generated by aggressive driving or challenging terrain.

Every component is precision-engineered and assembled to meet FOX’s stringent quality standards, delivering long-lasting durability and reliable performance for Jeep Wrangler JL owners.
