FOX 2.0 QS3 Shocks for Polaris Ranger Crew XP 1000 Front
Product Description
The FOX 2.0 QS3 shocks for Polaris Ranger Crew XP 1000 deliver a major suspension upgrade for riders who want better ride comfort, improved control, and increased durability on demanding terrain. Designed as a direct bolt-on replacement, these FOX Performance Series shocks dramatically improve suspension performance for both work and recreational riding.
FOX Podium 2.0 QS3 shocks replace factory emulsion shocks with a high-performance monotube design featuring an Internal Floating Piston (IFP) housed inside the piggyback reservoir. This design separates the nitrogen charge from the shock oil, preventing aeration and maintaining consistent damping performance during repeated suspension cycles across washboards, rocks, and rough terrain.
The Ranger Crew XP 1000’s factory suspension prioritizes comfort, but aggressive riding or heavy loads can cause bottoming out. FOX optimized the shock valving and spring performance to maintain a comfortable ride while significantly improving bottom-out resistance and suspension control.
The QS3 Quick Switch adjuster allows riders to instantly adjust compression damping to match terrain conditions, passenger load, or driving style. Select the softest setting for smooth trails or rock crawling, increase compression when hauling gear or passengers, or choose the firmest setting for aggressive off-road driving and added bottom-out protection.
FOX shocks feature hard-anodized aluminum shock bodies, piggyback reservoirs, and hard-chromed shafts, providing long-term durability and corrosion resistance. They are also fully rebuildable and re-valvable, allowing riders to service or fine-tune suspension performance over time.
