Frequently Asked Questions

What spring rate should I choose?

Standard rate for riders up to 240 lbs, heavy-duty for 240-370 lbs, super heavy-duty for 370+ lbs and Tri-Glide models.

Can I adjust the rebound on these shocks?

This standard version does not have rebound adjustment. FOX also offers an IFP-QSR version with 3-position adjustable rebound if you need that feature.

Are these shocks rebuildable?

Yes — FOX IFP shocks are fully serviceable and rebuildable, so they can be maintained and restored to like-new condition.

Do these shocks come with preload adjustment?

Yes — hand-adjustable spring preload allows you to dial in the ride height and firmness to suit your weight and load.

What makes the internal floating piston design better?

The IFP separates the gas charge from the oil, maintaining consistent pressure and damping performance over the full stroke without fade.
