Fox's 2.0 Performance Series rear shock (part 985-24-132) is a smooth-body monotube damper. The manufacturer's internal floating piston design separates the shock oil from the high-pressure, nitrogen-charged gas chamber, which keeps the damping fluid from foaming under repeated compression. At 11.11 inches of travel, it gives a lifted Jeep more droop than a stock-length unit. Owners on user forums are split on ride feel: some find it firmer than stock, others call it comfortable, and a few report early rear failures.
The manufacturer lists this 2.0 Performance application for the Jeep Comanche and Grand Cherokee. Sources disagree on the exact year and lift breakdown, so confirm your model year and lift height with the manufacturer's fitment lookup before ordering. Shoppers searching for a Fox 985-24-132 rear shock, a Grand Cherokee ZJ or WJ rear IFP shock for a 4.5-6 inch lift, or a Comanche MJ rear shock for a 3.5-4.5 inch lift should verify the match first. Compared with a cheaper twin-tube replacement, this 2.0 IFP shock delivers a more consistent damping feel over rough trail sections, which is the main reason buyers pay the premium.
Owners on user forums have reported shaft scoring from road debris that led to seal failure, most often on the rear shocks. Several of those owners fitted aftermarket shock boots afterward and reported no further problems.
Yes. The manufacturer's fitment lookup is the reliable source for matching this part to your exact model year and lift height, because published year and lift breakdowns vary between sources.
