The FOX FACTORY INC Steel Shock with Schedule 8.9-inch 2.75C-5R Linear (SKU FOX983-95-509-16) is a premium monotube shock absorber designed for high-performance off-road and motorsports applications. This sealed, IFP (Internal Floating Piston) shock delivers consistent damping control across extreme suspension travel, making it the choice for vehicles operating at the edge of capability in demanding terrain.
Engineered with a 2.00-inch outer diameter steel body finished in zinc plating for corrosion resistance, this monotube shock compresses to 14.80 inches and extends to 23.70 inches—a 9-inch stroke ideal for mid-travel suspension geometry. The C2.75-R5 valve configuration provides tuned compression and rebound damping suited to aggressive driving conditions, while the Schrader valve allows field-side pressure adjustments without full disassembly. The bulb design ensures consistent performance across temperature swings and high-speed cycling, critical for maintaining control during extended runs on unforgiving surfaces. Weighing 5.25 lbs, this shock balances structural integrity with reasonable unsprung weight.
This shock is built for off-road racers, rock crawlers, and trophy truck operators who demand precision damping without compromise. Drivers piloting vehicles through desert courses, rocky terrain, or high-speed trails depend on monotube technology to maintain ride control under sustained abuse. FOX Factory's reputation in motorsports suspension stems from engineering shocks that perform predictably at the limit—whether absorbing rock impacts or managing rapid-fire compression cycles on washboard terrain.
IFP monotube shocks remain the industry standard for off-road competition because they eliminate external reservoirs, reduce complexity, and deliver superior fade resistance compared to twin-tube designs. The sealed construction protects internal components from dust and moisture ingress, extending service life in harsh environments. This particular model's specifications align with vehicles requiring a mid-range stroke and moderate damping tune—common in full-size truck and UTV platforms.
