FOX 2.0 Performance IFP 4-6 Lift Shocks 1984-2001 Jeep Cherokee XJ

Part Number: 985-24-042

Summary: This FOX Performance Series smooth body shock kit is engineered to transform the handling of your Jeep Cherokee XJ. Utilizing the Internal Floating Piston (IFP) design, these shocks provide consistent, fade-free performance by separating the shock oil from the high-pressure nitrogen gas chamber. This setup addresses the common issue of oil aeration, resulting in predictable off-road handling and a comfortable on-road ride for vehicles equipped with 4 to 6 inches of lift.

Features

• Internal Floating Piston (IFP): High-pressure nitrogen-charged gas chamber provides separation between oil and gas to ensure maximum performance from the factory-tuned valving.
• Aluminum Shock Body: Precision metal impact 6061-T6 aluminum construction provides heat dissipation three times faster than steel to ensure consistent cooling during operation.
• Hard Chrome Plated Shaft: 5/8-inch stainless steel shaft provides a durable, corrosion-resistant surface to ensure long-term sealing integrity.
• Application Specific Valving: Race-developed high-flow piston design provides custom tuning for the Cherokee XJ to ensure optimized handling in variable temperatures.

Why Choose This Product?

• Engineering Advantage: The Internal Floating Piston (IFP) technology eliminates oil aeration, allowing the shock’s precision valving to function without the performance degradation typically found in twin-tube shocks.
• Performance Benefit: Drivers experience improved cooling through the aluminum body and more predictable handling across both highway and rugged off-road terrain.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the benefit of the IFP design?
The Internal Floating Piston (IFP) separates the shock oil from the high-pressure nitrogen gas, which prevents the oil from foaming (aeration) and ensures consistent damping performance.

Are these shocks better at handling heat than standard shocks?
Yes, the precision metal impact aluminum body is designed to dissipate heat three times faster than conventional steel bodies, reducing fade during extended use.

What lift height are these shocks compatible with?
These shocks are specifically configured for Jeep Cherokee XJs with 4 to 6 inches of front lift and 3.5 to 4.5 inches of rear lift.
