The FOX Performance Series FOX987-24-038 shock delivers race-proven damping control for demanding truck and SUV applications. Designed with application-specific valving, this universal smooth-body shock helps improve off-road capability while maintaining a comfortable, controlled ride on pavement. Its extended travel supports greater suspension movement in many applications, while performance-focused damping helps reduce vehicle sway and maintain predictable handling across changing terrain.

A 2.5-inch impact-extruded 6061-T6 aluminum body provides excellent heat dissipation and corrosion resistance compared with conventional steel shock bodies. The Type II clear-anodized finish adds protection against harsh environments, while the high-flow, velocity-sensitive damping system delivers consistent response through a wide range of suspension speeds. An internal floating piston separates gas from oil to help minimize aeration and maintain fade-resistant performance during extended use.

The FOX987-24-038 is equipped with a hydraulic top-out piston, a hard-chrome shaft, and eyelet-style ends. FOX builds this Performance Series shock to be fully serviceable, rebuildable, and re-tunable, allowing the damper to be maintained or adjusted as application needs change. This shock provides a durable solution for off-road vehicles requiring reliable suspension control, extended travel, and long-term performance.
