FOX's Performance Elite Series 2.5 front reservoir shock is tuned for the 2024-and-later INEOS Grenadier. Its 2.5-inch body is 6061-T6 aluminum with Type III anodizing, and it runs a 7/8-inch hard chromed steel shaft with redundant main, wiper, and scraper seals. The remote reservoir adds oil volume, which allows additional shock stroke to maintain available travel, and decreases the harshness associated with nitrogen ramp-up.
The DSC EVO adjuster is the main reason to pay for this over a fixed-valve replacement. Per the manufacturer, its Variable Valve Control (VVC) on the high-speed circuit lets you add high-speed compression without sacrificing small-bump sensitivity. The adjuster sits where it eliminates interference with aggressive tires at full lock. If you run a Grenadier with bigger tires on trails, that clearance matters.
Yes. The manufacturer states that direct-replacement shocks should always be installed as a set for maximum performance.
The manufacturer's kit designation for this part lists a 0-2 inch front lift for the 2024-and-later INEOS Grenadier.
The manufacturer says the direct-replacement shocks are designed to clear the stock suspension. If aftermarket suspension components are installed, the customer is responsible for making sure the shocks do not interfere with other components at any point in the stroke.
The manufacturer's direct-replacement install guide calls for a chassis lift, with the vehicle secured to the lift for the entire procedure. It also states that installation must be done by a qualified service technician using the special tools and experience the job requires, so this is not a driveway-level swap. Top and bottom reservoir clamps are included in the kit. Because the manufacturer says to install shocks as a set, plan to do both fronts in one session. After any other suspension changes, check that the reservoirs and shocks clear through the full stroke before driving.
