Take On Bigger Roads Without Sacrificing Comfort

If you're running a 2014-2025 RAM 2500 or 3500 and want to tighten up your ride without making it feel like a brick, the FOX 2.5 Performance Smooth Body IFP HTO Front Shock is the upgrade your truck needs. Built for trucks that see both daily driving and rougher terrain, this shock offers a balance of comfort and control that makes every mile feel solid and secure. The Hydraulic Top Out (HTO) technology really sets it apart, especially if you've added heavy tires or a leveling kit. It prevents that harsh top-out feeling by adding rebound damping when you need it most, like coming off a curb or hitting uneven ground. You'll feel the difference every time your front end settles after a dip or a bump. Plus, with a body made from rust-resistant, hard-anodized aluminum, these shocks are built to keep performing no matter the weather or road conditions. Whether you're towing, commuting, or exploring backroads, this FOX shock is ready to handle it all.

Engineered To Handle Every Inch Of Travel

Designed with FOX’s racing heritage and engineered precision, the 987-24-004 front shock delivers a smooth, predictable ride whether you’re on asphalt or gravel. It features a 2.5-inch CNC-machined 6061-T6 aluminum body that resists corrosion and dissipates heat more efficiently than steel-bodied alternatives. The Internal Floating Piston (IFP) separates the shock oil from high-pressure nitrogen, eliminating cavitation and giving you consistent damping under demanding conditions. A 5/8-inch hard chrome shaft adds long-term durability, resisting pitting and wear even after years of abuse. The HTO piston enhances control by slowing the shock’s extension rate when it's close to full rebound, preventing sudden jolts and reducing stress on your suspension. With 7.19 inches of travel and compatibility for trucks with 0-1.5 inches of front lift, this shock works great with stock setups and mild leveling kits. Every component is tuned to give you better handling, more stability, and confidence when your truck is fully loaded or pushed to its limits.
