FOX

FOX is one of the most respected suspension brands in the world, producing shocks, coilovers, reservoir shocks, IFP monotube shocks, upper control arms, and steering stabilizers that are trusted by off-road race teams, overlanders, and performance drivers who require more consistency and damping control than factory suspension can deliver. The brand's reputation was built through desert racing programs including the Baja 1000 and King of the Hammers, where FOX products are validated against the most demanding suspension punishment available before reaching the aftermarket, and that race heritage is directly reflected in the technology and build quality of their Performance, Performance Elite, and Factory Race product lines. Ford F-150, Toyota Tacoma, Toyota 4Runner, Land Cruiser, Jeep Wrangler and Gladiator, Chevrolet Silverado, and Ford Bronco owners choose FOX suspension upgrades as the single most impactful improvement to both on-road ride quality and off-road capability availabl...
