Fox Suspension IFP Depth Set and Torque Tool

No, this specific tool is designed exclusively for Fox rear shocks utilizing a 9mm thru-shaft configuration. It is primarily intended for specific Trek applications, so please verify your shock's shaft diameter before purchasing.

The Internal Floating Piston (IFP) depth determines the air volume and oil pressure balance within your shock. If the depth is off by even a few millimeters, it can negatively impact your suspension's responsiveness, cause inconsistent damping, or lead to premature seal failure.

This is a specialized tool dedicated to setting the IFP depth and torque. While it is essential for that specific step of a full shock rebuild, it does not replace other standard tools required for general maintenance like seal replacements or air can services.

Yes, you will need a standard torque wrench to interface with the tool's torque head, as well as the appropriate service manual for your specific shock model. The tool provides the depth setting, but you must follow the manufacturer's torque specifications to complete the job safely.

If you are comfortable performing advanced suspension service, this tool is a great addition to your workshop. However, it is a precision instrument, so ensure you have the correct service guide for your specific shock model before attempting the adjustment.
