1984–2001 Jeep Cherokee XJ / 1997–2006 Jeep Wrangler TJ Rear Fox 2.0 Performance Series Shock Absorber

Upgrade your suspension performance with the FOX 2.0 Performance Series Shock Absorber, engineered with race-proven technology to transform the handling of your truck or SUV. Designed to deliver a smooth, comfortable on-road ride while maintaining predictable control off-road, this shock performs in even the toughest conditions. The precision metal impact aluminum body increases cooling capacity and resists corrosion, while the internal floating piston (IFP) mono-tube design separates shock oil from the high-pressure nitrogen gas chamber to eliminate aeration. Combined with FOX’s race-developed high-flow damping piston and application-specific valving, this shock provides consistent performance, improved stability, and reliable ride quality over rough terrain.
