Steel Shock wo/Sch 8.9in 9C-3R Linear

The FOX FACTORY INC Steel Shock without Schrader 8.9-inch 9C-3R Linear (SKU FOX983-95-539-39) is a high-performance monotube shock absorber engineered for demanding off-road and tactical vehicle applications. This 20.40-inch extended length shock delivers precise damping control through its C9-R3 valve configuration, compressing to 13.20 inches for dynamic suspension response across varied terrain.

Constructed from zinc-plated steel, the shock offers corrosion resistance critical for vehicles operating in harsh environments—marine spray, high-humidity deployments, and extended field operations. The 2.00-inch outer diameter housing accommodates standard mounting patterns while maintaining structural integrity under sustained load cycling. At 5.25 pounds, the unit's weight distribution supports vehicle stability without compromising suspension tuning. The linear damping curve ensures predictable performance whether absorbing impacts from rocky terrain or managing sustained washboard surfaces, making it equally suited for tactical recovery operations, overland expeditions, and serious off-road work.

Operators and vehicle technicians rely on FOX suspension components for mission-critical platforms where suspension failure is not an option. This shock is built for users who demand repeatability, fade-free performance, and long service intervals in extreme conditions. Whether upgrading a tactical support vehicle, expedition truck, or specialized recovery rig, this monotube design provides the damping authority and ruggedness required for sustained hard use.

FOX Factory's reputation in extreme motorsports translates directly to field-proven reliability for serious operators and builders who understand that suspension geometry and damping quality determine vehicle control under pressure.
