Key Features of FOX Factory Race Series 2.5 Reservoir Shocks
Performance-Tuned for Maximum Control
The Factory Race Series 2.5 Reservoir Shocks are engineered to deliver superior damping control on and off the pavement. Incorporating FOX’s Off-Road race technology, these shocks provide the perfect balance of performance and comfort, ensuring your truck or SUV can handle even the most rugged terrain. The bolt-on design allows for easy installation on most stock and lifted vehicles.
External Reservoir for Enhanced Cooling and Durability
The external reservoir increases the shock’s oil and nitrogen capacity, preventing shock fade during long off-road drives. This system ensures consistent performance by improving heat dissipation, allowing you to push your vehicle harder without sacrificing ride quality or control.
Durable Zinc-Plated Steel Body
The 2.5″ smooth bore zinc-plated seamless steel body is double-clear coated for extended corrosion resistance. This durable construction ensures long-lasting performance even in the harshest environments, making these shocks a reliable choice for any off-road adventure.
Built for Strength and Versatility
7/8″ Hard Chrome-Plated Steel Shafts for Maximum Durability
The 7/8″ hard chrome-plated heat-treated alloy steel shafts are designed for superior strength and smooth operation, even in tough off-road environments. These heavy-duty shafts are built to handle extreme impacts, ensuring long-lasting durability for your suspension system.
Dual Speed Compression Adjustment for Fine-Tuning
The Dual Speed Compression (DSC) adjuster allows you to fine-tune your ride based on driving conditions and preferences. Whether you’re cruising on the highway or tackling rugged trails, this feature lets you optimize performance for maximum control and comfort.
Redundant Sealing Pack System for Maximum Protection
The redundant sealing pack system includes a main seal, wiper seal, and scraper seal, providing multiple layers of protection from dirt, debris, and moisture. This advanced sealing system helps maintain smooth performance and extend the life of your shocks, even in extreme conditions.
