Bypass Shocks

Bypass shocks use multiple bypass tubes to independently tune compression and rebound at different points in the shaft's travel: soft early in the stroke for a comfortable ride, firmer mid-travel for high-speed stability, and controlled through the last inches to prevent bottoming out. A bypass shock trades some of a smooth body or coilover shock's simplicity for that tunable, position-sensitive damping, which is why bypass shocks are the standard choice for serious desert and prerunner builds.

Frequently Asked Questions

Bypass Shocks FAQs

Find answers to some of our most frequently asked questions here, or visit our full FAQ section for additional information and support.
What's the difference between a bypass shock and a coilover?

A bypass shock uses multiple bypass tubes to independently tune compression at different points in the travel, giving zone-by-zone control rather than a single spring and damping curve.

Who needs a bypass shock instead of a coilover?

Long travel builds, pre-runners, and high-speed desert applications where multi-zone damping control matters more than a simpler coilover setup.

Are bypass shocks used in factory race applications?

Yes — Fox bypass shocks are used in OEM Raptor configurations and by factory race teams, and King bypass shocks are used by top desert racing teams at the Baja 1000 and SCORE International events.

Do I need a consultation before ordering bypass shocks?

Yes — Free phone consultation is included with every order. Bypass shock builds are custom applications that benefit from detailed consultation on zone tuning and sizing.
