FOX 2.5 Performance Elite Front Shocks for Polaris RZR XP 4
Product Description
The FOX 2.5 Performance Elite shocks for Polaris RZR XP 4 deliver race-inspired suspension performance designed to improve control, traction, and durability across aggressive off-road terrain. These shocks are a direct bolt-on upgrade that dramatically improves ride quality and stability for the Polaris RZR XP 4 platform.
FOX Performance Elite shocks feature Dual-Speed Compression (DSC) adjustment, allowing drivers to independently tune high-speed and low-speed compression damping. This gives riders the ability to precisely adjust suspension performance depending on terrain conditions, vehicle load, and driving style.
The 2.5-inch aluminum shock bodies increase internal oil capacity while improving heat dissipation. FOX’s race-developed high-flow damping pistons deliver smooth small bump compliance while maintaining support during larger impacts and aggressive riding.
A piggyback reservoir increases oil capacity and houses an Internal Floating Piston (IFP) that separates nitrogen from shock oil. This prevents aeration and ensures consistent damping performance during extended high-speed driving across rough terrain.
With wide-range rebound adjustment and adjustable spring preload, drivers can fine-tune suspension response, traction, and ride height to match their preferred riding style.
FOX Performance Elite shocks are engineered for serious off-road riders who demand high-performance suspension and long-term reliability.
