FOX 2.5" Factory Series 3-Tube External Bypass Shock (Right) - 14-Inch Travel Remote Reservoir with Cerakote Finish
Engineered for maximum ground clearance and sustained high-speed off-road performance, the FOX 2.5" Factory Series 3-Tube External Bypass Shock delivers race-proven damping with a 14-inch travel capacity in a fully rebuildable, right-side remote-reservoir package.
-
14 Inches of Controlled Travel: Delivers 14 inches of wheel travel (extended length 46.6 inches) to absorb steep terrain, rock gardens, and high-speed washes without bottoming out.
-
Factory Race Cerakote Protection: Features a proprietary Cerakote protective ceramic coating over a zinc-plated basecoat, shielding the black anodized CNC machined aluminum body from desert abrasion, salt, and UV degradation.
-
3-Tube External Bypass Design: The external bypass tubes route fluid through a dedicated cooling loop connected to a remote reservoir via braided lines, minimizing fluid aeration and heat buildup during aggressive crawling or racing.
-
17-4 H900 Hard Chrome Shaft: Built around a 17-4 H900 hard chrome plated stainless steel shaft that offers exceptional resistance to scoring, corrosion, and bending compared to standard aftermarket solutions.
-
JM92 MIL-SPEC Off-Road Oil: Pre-filled with JM92 MIL-SPEC oil developed specifically for off-road racing environments, ensuring consistent damping performance whether the shock is operating at ambient or extreme temperatures.
-
Right-Side Eyelet Mounting: Designed specifically for the right side of the vehicle (part number 981-25-410-R) with top and bottom eyelet mounting points; verify your vehicle's upper and lower mounting brackets for direct fitment.
-
Owner Serviceable and Rebuildable: Fully serviceable to extend the lifespan of your suspension investment, with standard factory warranty coverage included.
Unmatched Thermal Management for Extreme Terrain
When pushing 2.5-inch bore suspensions to their limits, heat is the primary enemy of consistent damping. This right-side remote reservoir shock utilizes a 3-tube bypass configuration that separates compression and rebound circuits while routing fluid through an external cooling loop. Coupled with a dedicated remote reservoir and braided steel lines, the system dissipates heat much faster than integrated piggyback designs, maintaining reliable suspension travel through prolonged desert runs or technical rock crawling.

Because this is a right-side specific component (indicated by the "-R" in the part number 981-25-410-R), ensure your build matches the right-hand side mounting points before installation. The 28.1-pound weight and 46.6-inch overall length require standard eyelet-to-eyelet installation hardware; verify that your vehicle's upper shock mount and lower control arm brackets can accommodate this exact footprint. Experience exact damping characteristics proven in off-road racing with a shock built to be rebuilt and maintained in the field.
