A twenty-minute drive on a washboard road at high speed can generate enough heat to seriously challenge the capability of our 2.0 shocks. These 2.5 series shocks don’t even break a sweat. If you are looking for the absolute no-holds-barred solution for your Vanagon, look no further!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis bundle includes a pair of Fox front shocks with custom flat perches and a pair of our high-clearance front springs. These high clearance front springs have a smaller outer diameter to improve clearance near the upper ball joint, which better accommodates the long travel on the adjustable damping, remote reservoir shocks. The smaller diameter spring also gives you more room to work with your spring compressor for easier installation. But even with their narrowed shape, these springs maintain the custom dual spring rates that we've perfected to provide both an OEM-quality ride on-road and plenty of support off-road.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis long travel, Fox DSG, compression damping adjustable kit features low and high speed compression adjustment. From a full Westy camper to a light-weight tin-top, to anywhere along the Baja peninsula, you can choose the compression damping that suits your vehicle and the terrain you're traveling upon. The combination of damping options allows you to dial in your ride like never before. The level of stiffness you feel between one shock and the next is almost entirely a function of compression damping. Our Fox shocks are fully adjustable in that regard! In the softest position, they will feel about the same as our Fox 2.0 shocks. At the firmest setting, they feel about 30% stiffer. Whatever you like: soft like a marshmallow or on rails like a slot car—you don't have to settle for one or the other! You can experience both and everything in between! No matter how you set the compression damping, what they'll do better than any other shock is controlling the ride via much greater rebound damping—which is the resistance that a shock absorber provides after a bump is hit and the suspension compresses. No other option available for the Syncro comes close to matching what these GoWesty\/Fox 2.5 shocks can do. They are simply unrivaled!\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eComparison: 2.0 vs 2.5\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe main differences between the Fox 2.0 and 2.5 are:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGreater adjustability range:\u003c\/strong\u003e These 2.5s are as soft as the 2.0s in the softest setting, and are about 30% stiffer in the stiffest setting.

With the 2.0 shocks, we had to bring spares for the inevitable shock explosions (from what was admittedly gross abuse). With the 2.5s, no spares are required. They are simply indestructible!
