Description
The FOX® 883-26-095 Performance Elite Series 2.5 Reservoir Shock is a front-position, remote-reservoir shock pair with a Dual Speed Compression (DSC) adjuster, engineered for 2017 and newer Ford Super Duty F-250 and F-350 trucks running 0-1.5 inches of front lift.
IMPORTANT: This is a front-only kit. The matching rear pair for the same 0-1.5″ lift application is FOX 883-26-096, sold separately. This kit is sold as a pair (two shocks).
The FOX® Performance Elite Series 2.5 Reservoir Shock delivers an upgraded, bolt-on suspension solution for the Ford Super Duty, built to improve off-road capability and towing stability while keeping the truck comfortable and controlled on the daily commute.
At the core of the Performance Elite Series is a 2.5″ impact-extruded and CNC-machined 6061-T6 Type III anodized aluminum shock body paired with a 2.5″ smooth bore, honed seamless alloy reservoir. The external reservoir increases oil capacity, which helps the shock dissipate heat more efficiently during sustained off-road or towing use, and a larger, high-flow piston increases bottom-out resistance and damping across any terrain.
The reservoir features a Dual Speed Compression (DSC) adjuster, giving the driver independent control over low-speed and high-speed compression damping to fine-tune the ride for pavement, towing, or trail use. Vehicle-specific valving is applied at the factory to match the Ford Super Duty’s weight and suspension geometry, and the remote reservoirs are mounted to clear aggressive tires at full lock.
Construction includes 7/8″ hard chrome-plated steel shafts and a redundant sealing pack system (main seal, wiper seal, scraper seal) for long-term durability. FOX® 2.5 Performance Series products purchased after March 30, 2025 carry FOX’s Limited Lifetime Warranty; products purchased prior to that date are covered under FOX’s standard Limited One (1) Year suspension warranty. Full warranty terms are available from FOX Factory, Inc.
