🧾 Overview
The FOX Performance Elite Series 2.5 DSC Reservoir Rear Shocks for the Jeep Gladiator JT deliver race-proven damping, exceptional control, and refined ride quality for both aggressive off-road use and confident daily driving. Built from FOX’s off-road racing lineage, these shocks are engineered to perform in extreme conditions—then bolted directly onto your Gladiator with application-specific tuning.
A 2.5-inch smooth body paired with an external reservoir increases oil and nitrogen capacity to reduce heat and prevent fade during sustained abuse. The DSC (Dual Speed Compression) adjuster lets you independently fine-tune low- and high-speed compression, dialing in comfort, control, and bottom-out resistance across varied terrain and lift heights.
✔ Race-derived performance you can bolt on
✔ External reservoirs reduce heat and shock fade
✔ DSC adjustability for precise tuning
✔ Built for stock through heavily lifted Gladiator setups
