Fox Racing Shocks 980-02-222-1 Series Bypass Shock Absorber Custom Valving - 2.5 14-Inch

The Fox Racing Shocks 980-02-222-1 is a high-performance 2.5 Series Piggyback Bypass Shock Absorber featuring 14 inches of travel with a 2-compression / 2-rebound bypass tube configuration. Designed for serious off-road applications, this shock delivers precisely tuned damping characteristics through its custom valving setup, allowing experienced builders and racers to dial in suspension performance for specific terrain and vehicle requirements.

Fox's 2.5 Series shocks are built around a large-diameter 2.5-inch main body, providing increased oil volume and superior heat dissipation compared to standard shock designs. The bypass tube architecture divides the stroke into distinct zones, offering progressively stiffer damping as the shock moves through its travel — delivering a compliant ride over small bumps while resisting bottoming on big hits.

Key Features:

• 14-inch travel for maximum wheel articulation and obstacle clearance
• 2.5 Series large-diameter body for high oil capacity and fade resistance
• 2 compression bypass tubes for zoned compression damping control
• 2 rebound bypass tubes for zoned rebound damping control
• Custom valving — professionally tuned for specific performance applications
• Piggyback reservoir design for additional fluid and nitrogen capacity
• Matte black finish for a clean, race-inspired appearance
• Built with Fox's precision internal components and high-quality seals for long service life

The Fox 2.5 Series Bypass shock is a favorite among desert racers, rock crawlers, and serious off-road enthusiasts who demand maximum performance and tunability from their suspension systems. Custom valving ensures this unit is optimized well beyond off-the-shelf specifications.
