Description
Durable and Rust-Resistant Aluminum Body The shock body is made from impact-extruded and CNC-machined 6061-T6 aluminum, providing exceptional heat dissipation and resistance to rust. The clear-anodized finish enhances the durability, ensuring that these shocks withstand harsh environments and heavy use without corroding.
Advanced Internal Floating Piston (IFP) Technology At the heart of the Performance Series 2.0 IFP shock is the Internal Floating Piston (IFP) mono-tube design, which separates the shock oil from the high-pressure nitrogen gas chamber. This design prevents oil aeration, allowing for consistent damping performance and improved control. The race-developed high-flow piston, paired with application-specific valving, ensures a predictable and comfortable ride across varying terrains.
Ideal for Lightly Lifted Vehicles Designed for front lift heights between 0 and 1.5 inches, this model is perfect for vehicles with slight lifts. With 7.59 inches of travel, these shocks provide excellent suspension articulation and enhanced performance for trucks and SUVs that require a bit more lift in the front.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: How does the FOX Performance Series 2.0 IFP Shock improve performance?
A: This shock features FOX’s race-proven damping technology and Internal Floating Piston (IFP) design, which separates the shock oil from nitrogen gas. This prevents oil aeration, delivering consistent damping performance and better handling on both rough terrain and smooth roads.
Q: What are the benefits of the aluminum body construction?
A: The 6061-T6 aluminum body dissipates heat four times faster than steel, preventing shock fade during heavy use. Additionally, the aluminum construction is rust-resistant, ensuring long-lasting durability even in harsh conditions.
Q: Can these shocks be used on lifted vehicles?
A: Yes, the FOX Performance Series 2.0 IFP Shock is designed for vehicles with front lift heights of 0-1.5 inches, making it suitable for trucks or SUVs with slight front lifts. Always verify your vehicle’s lift height to ensure proper fitment.
Q: What is the purpose of the IFP (Internal Floating Piston) technology?
A: The IFP design separates the shock oil from the nitrogen gas chamber, preventing oil aeration and ensuring consistent damping performance. This results in better handling, improved control, and a smoother ride, especially in off-road conditions.
Q: Are these shocks suitable for off-road driving?
A: Yes, the Performance Series 2.0 IFP Shocks are built to handle off-road conditions while maintaining on-road comfort. The race-developed piston and application-specific valving provide enhanced stability and control in rugged environments.
Q: What vehicles are compatible with these shocks?
A: The FOX Performance Series 2.0 IFP Shock, part number 985-24-226, is designed for vehicles with front lift heights of 0-1.5 inches and does not fit leaf spring models. Always check your vehicle’s specifications to ensure compatibility before purchasing.
Q: How do these shocks perform when towing or carrying heavy loads?
A: The robust design and race-developed high-flow piston provide improved stability and control when towing or carrying heavy loads, minimizing vehicle sway and ensuring consistent
