Summary: The FOX Performance Series 2.0 Reservoir smooth body shocks are engineered for the 2017-2019 Ford F-450/550 Super Duty Cab and Chassis, delivering race-derived performance in a bolt-on package. Featuring a compression adjustable external reservoir, these shocks allow for increased oil and nitrogen capacity while providing the ability to fine-tune ride quality. The impact-extruded 6061-T6 aluminum body is designed to dissipate heat faster than conventional steel, ensuring consistent damping under heavy loads and rough road conditions.

Features

• External Reservoir: 2.0 inches Smooth bore 6061-T6 hard anodized aluminum provides increased oil and nitrogen capacity to ensure consistent performance and a race-inspired aesthetic.
• LSC Adjuster: Low Speed Compression (LSC) adjustment capability provides user-tunable damping to ensure the vehicle is optimized for specific loads or terrain.
• Aluminum Shock Body: 2.0 inches Impact extruded 6061-T6 aluminum provides rapid heat dissipation and rust resistance to ensure long-term durability in harsh environments.
• High-Flow Piston: Race-developed high-flow design provides application-specific valving to ensure a predictable ride quality and improved handling.
• Redundant Sealing Pack: Main seal, wiper seal, and scraper seal system provides multi-layer protection to ensure the shock remains pressurized and free of contaminants.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the benefit of the external reservoir on these shocks?
The external reservoir increases the total oil and nitrogen capacity of the shock, which helps dissipate heat more effectively and maintains consistent damping performance during heavy use.

Can I adjust the firmness of these shocks?
Yes, these shocks feature a Low Speed Compression (LSC) adjuster that allows you to manually tune the compression damping to suit your driving preferences or vehicle load.

Are these shocks resistant to rust?
Yes, the shock bodies are constructed from impact-extruded 6061-T6 aluminum and are clear-anodized to provide a durable finish that resists corrosion over time.
