Description
Part number 985-26-052 is a FOX® 2.0 Performance Series smooth body shock with 10.12in of travel, eyelet mounts on both ends, and a clamp-mounted external reservoir with a manual compression damping (CD) adjuster, built for universal off-road and suspension applications.
IMPORTANT: This is the eyelet-top/eyelet-bottom version of this travel length with an integrated CD adjuster. FOX® also offers a stem-top-mount version at the same 10.12in travel without the adjuster under part number 985-24-057. Confirm your required mounting hardware (eyelet vs. stem top) and whether you need external damping adjustment before ordering, since FOX® does not publish vehicle-specific fitment for this universal shock and mount type is not interchangeable.
This FOX® 2.0 Performance Series shock uses an impact-extruded, clear-anodized 6061-T6 aluminum body that dissipates heat faster than a conventional steel-body shock, delivering consistent damping performance under sustained off-road use.
The clamp-mounted external reservoir increases available oil and nitrogen capacity beyond what a standard monotube shock can hold, improving heat management and damping consistency over long, rough sections of trail or washboard road. The reservoir clamp and other components are CNC-machined from black-anodized 6061-T6 billet aluminum. A race-developed high-flow piston is matched with application-specific valving to deliver a controlled, predictable ride.
The reservoir includes a manual compression damping (CD) adjuster, letting the installer fine-tune compression damping to match vehicle weight, tire size, and terrain without disassembling the shock.
The shaft is 5/8in hard chrome-plated, heat-treated alloy steel, and the shock uses a redundant sealing pack system consisting of a main seal, wiper seal, and scraper seal to keep contaminants out and oil in over extended service life. This shock is backed by the FOX® limited lifetime warranty.

This is a universal-application FOX® 2.0 Performance Series shock, not tied to a specific make or model – match it to your build by travel (10.12in), extended/compressed length, and eyelet-to-eyelet mounting configuration. This SKU is the eyelet-mount version with a CD adjuster; the stem-top-mount version at the same 10.12in travel without the adjuster is sold separately under part number 985-24-057. Do not order this part number if your application requires a stem-top mount.
