What is the benefit of custom valving on this shock?

Custom valving means the shock absorber is tuned to a specific damping characteristic. This is intended to provide improved ride quality and handling for the intended application, especially in off-road or demanding driving conditions.

What does the remote reservoir do?

The remote reservoir holds additional shock fluid and nitrogen. This increases the shock's overall capacity, which helps to keep the fluid cooler and prevent performance loss, known as shock fade, during prolonged or hard use.

Does this coil-over shock come with springs?

The manufacturer's description does not specify if springs are included with this coil-over shock. It is recommended to check the product packaging or contact the manufacturer for confirmation.

Product Details

Fox is well-known for their off-road racing suspension components, and this 3.0 Factory Race Series coil-over shock is a prime example of that race-proven technology. This 12-inch stroke coil-over is designed to bolt onto your truck or SUV, offering a significant upgrade in ride quality and damping performance over stock suspension. It features custom valving, meaning it's tuned to provide a specific damping characteristic that aims to improve handling and comfort, especially when you encounter rough terrain or push your vehicle harder.

The construction of this shock leverages the same principles and technologies found in their dedicated off-road race shocks. This means you're getting a well-built unit that's intended to withstand the rigors of demanding use. The 3.0-inch diameter body offers ample fluid capacity and surface area for heat dissipation, which is crucial for maintaining consistent damping performance during extended use or under heavy loads. The remote reservoir allows for additional oil and nitrogen capacity, further aiding in cooling and preventing shock fade.

When installing this coil-over, you'll be replacing your existing front suspension components. It's designed as a direct replacement for many truck and SUV applications, though it's always a good idea to verify fitment for your specific vehicle. This shock is a substantial upgrade for anyone looking to improve their vehicle's on-road comfort and off-road capability, offering a noticeable difference in how the vehicle handles bumps, G-outs, and general trail conditions.
