FOX 2.0 QS3 Shocks for Polaris Ranger Crew XD 1500 Front
Product Description
The FOX 2.0 QS3 shocks for Polaris Ranger Crew XD 1500 deliver a major suspension upgrade for riders who want improved ride comfort, increased durability, and better control across rough terrain. Designed as a direct bolt-on replacement, these FOX Performance Series shocks significantly enhance the suspension performance of your Ranger Crew XD 1500 for both work and recreational off-road use.
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 even when the suspension is repeatedly cycling through washboards, rocks, and uneven terrain.
Piggyback reservoirs increase oil capacity and cooling efficiency, helping the shocks maintain stable performance during heavy-duty workloads or extended rides. FOX’s velocity-sensitive damping technology improves suspension response, helping maintain stability and control across challenging terrain.
The QS3 Quick Switch compression adjuster allows drivers to quickly tune suspension performance to match terrain conditions, passenger load, or driving style. Select the softest setting for smooth trails and crawling terrain, increase compression when hauling gear or passengers, or choose the firmest setting for aggressive riding and improved bottom-out protection.
Built for durability, FOX shocks feature Type III hard-anodized aluminum bodies, piggyback reservoirs, and hard-chromed shafts designed to resist corrosion and wear. They are also fully rebuildable and re-valvable, allowing riders to service or fine-tune suspension performance for long-term reliability.
