Product Description

The FOX 983-02-085 is a 2.0 Performance Series front coilover IFP shock for the 2012-2016 Ford Ranger T6 platform. It is designed to improve front suspension control, ride quality, and damping consistency compared with stock suspension, while also allowing up to 2 inches of front lift for a leveled stance and additional clearance. The 0-2 inch figure applies to the front only; rear lift is not provided by this part number.

Verified fitment supports 2012-2016 Ford Ranger T6 4WD models and 2012-2016 Ranger T6 Hi-Rider 2WD models. Confirmed specifications include a 44.15-inch extended length, 38.97-inch collapsed length, 5.18-inch stroke, stock-style upper mount, and eyelet lower mount. This is a vehicle-specific front application and should not be assigned to non-T6 Ranger platforms or unrelated North American Ranger applications without separate confirmation.

This coilover is best suited for daily-driven and off-road-oriented Ranger builds that need improved front-end damping and mild lift without moving to a remote-reservoir setup. Fitment beyond the applications listed above was not consistently validated across trusted sources, so it is not included here.
