Fox Suspension 36 Grip2 Damper Assembly

No, this specific assembly is designed for 2021 Fox 36 forks with 180mm of travel. You should verify your fork's model year and stanchion diameter before purchasing to ensure it fits your specific chassis.

The Grip2 damper offers superior adjustability compared to simpler damping systems. It allows you to independently tune high-speed and low-speed compression and rebound, giving you precise control over how your fork handles small bumps versus big hits.

If you have experience with suspension service and the proper tools, such as a torque wrench and suspension oil, it is a manageable task. However, if you are not comfortable working with internal hydraulic systems, it is best to have a professional mechanic perform the installation to ensure everything is seated and bled correctly.

This kit includes the complete damper assembly, but it does not include the necessary suspension oil or specialized tools required for the service. You will need to source the correct weight and volume of suspension fluid separately according to the Fox service manual for your specific fork.

You should consider a replacement if you notice a loss of damping control, oil leaking from the top cap, or if the compression and rebound adjusters no longer provide a noticeable change in feel. If your fork feels harsh or inconsistent despite proper air pressure settings, the damper internals may be worn out.
