Fox offers 3 different steering stabilizers for the 2018 and newer Jeep Wrangler JL & the 2020 and newer Jeep Gladiator JT. The Performance Series 2.0 Smooth Body IFP Stabilizer, the Performance Series 2.0 TS Stabilizer and the Factory Race Series 2.0 ATS Stabilizer each offer benefits over the stock steering stabilizer and increased performance from one to the next. This buyer's guide will help you decide which steering stabilizer is the best choice for your Jeep and your driving style. All three options from Fox feature a CNC machined 6061-T6 Aluminum body with a clear anodized finish, hard chrome plated heat-treated alloy steel shafts and billet aluminum components. The Performance Series 2.0 IFP Stabilizer features an IFP or Internal Floating Piston to keep the high pressure gas and oil separated to prevent aeration and any loss in performance. The Performance Series 2.0 TS or Through Shaft Stabilizer eliminates any internal fluid displacement to offer neutral and consistent damping of unwanted steering feedback. Step up to the Factory Race Series 2.0 ATS to build on the features found in the Performance Series Stabilizers with a through shaft design, a piggy back reservoir to add additional fluid capacity, and IFP to prevent any aeration or loss of performance and 24 points of adjustment allowing you to set the desired level of damping on the fly with a simple twist of the flat head adjustment screw.

Note to all video producers with off road products:
Please use this production as a template. One of the best I’ve seen. Quadratec has video production down to a science.
Thanks for the kind words! We just might print this and frame it for the office.

I just upgraded from the entry level fox to the ATS on my JK on 37s. This was a greatly welcomed edition to my build. Would definitely do this sooner if you have the funds. Push/pull is now eliminated and ability to adjust firmness is awesome. 10/10
Do you know offhand if it's rebuildable? Just put 37's on my 2 door JK as well and am shopping for an upgrade from my current smooth body Fox.
I have the Fox TS 2.0 on my 2020 Gladiator Rubicon... Made a world of difference both on and offroad.
Before purchase, I talked to the guy at Fox who designed them, and he said TS and ATS are virtually identical, other than one not being adjustable.
Have you upgraded your track bar yet and if so which one did you go for? I’ve been looking at a steer smarts yeti .
@@jaimequintana1244 I have, but I haven't installed it yet (lack of time)... I went with the EVO Manufacturing. Their stuff is WAY overbuilt, and beyond heavy-duty, which is awesome! So it should last forever. Highly recommend their products, lifts, and suspension parts. 👍🏻
MudRunner2005 awesome! I’ll definitely check them out! 🖐
I just purchased the high end model with adjustable dampening. The video was very informative and helpful making my purchase decision. I like my new gladiator rubicon 2020 and want to stiffen up the steering. This is my first 4 wheel drive vehicle ever so I am learning as I go what I need for my off road experience. Thanks for your help and keep the great videos coming.
Hello Sir, I am new to the jeep 4x4 , I was thinking in which should I get. Do you have any mods such lift or anything on you jeep?
Great info. I have The the entry fox level one on my Jl and I love it.
Fox stabilizers are great, but you should recommend a relocation Kit to raise it above the tie rod so it doesn't get smashed on the rocks...
Thank you. I bent mine to hell at Rausch Creek.
@@branman6921 lol same.
I feel like a chump for spending 300+ on one and not thinking about its location.
True but don’t forget about the mall crawlers
This was a fantastic and informative video. Thank you for explaining the internal differences across the product line. Mostly because of this video, I'll order my stabilizer from Quadratec instead of Scamazon.
Well done,. Just purchased the one with the reservoir. Can't wait to install. Thank you Quadratec.
Good choice!
How has it worked
@@eldelapalma1338 Good so far. off road in some deep water and mud. No climbing where I live. But it's been good.

Love the info. I’m not very mechanical but do like learning and then working on my Jeep.
Thank you.
Im installing the Fox 2.0 IFP after my steering box is replaced.
Rob, thank you for such an informative video. I'm new to the Jeep world and just ordered the 2.0 TS from you guys to complement full 2.0 suspension and going up to bigger tires pretty soon. Subscribed to your channel.
Great video n content! Keep em coming

Excellent video! I have the 2.0 on my 2018 JL Rubicon and it has been great, on and off the road. I've thought about upgrading to the Factory Race Series 2.0 for the ability to tighten it up a bit more for better highway performance. Looking at the price, though, I think I'll stick with the base 2.0. OUCH! $440?? That's up about a hundred bucks from where it was last time I looked.
I just installed this (the ATS) on my JK. Highly recommend. Worth the money. Makes driving so much more enjoyable. It’s super smooth.
Thanks for the video guys, it really helped me out in my decision. I currently have The Performance Series 2.0 Smooth Body IFP stabilizer, which I installed when I was at a 2.5” lift and 35’s. I decided to upgrade to the Factory Race Series 2.0 ATS Stabilizer, since I’m now at a 3.5” lift with 37’s now. In addition to that, I wheel more than I did before.
How do you like the ATS?
@@adamrico3701 So far so good. Easy install and it works well!
I am trying to decide between the fox ats and falcon
I’ve got 7500 miles (no rock crawling) on my 2020 Gladiator Mojave with 33” Nexon ATs. At 70 mph the ride is darn nice. Bird hunting on bumpy washboard dirt roads, much better than my old 4Runner. Would after spending the money for a pair of these would my Mojave “notice” the difference?
Can you run a stock aluminum tie rod bracket on a 2020 jeep without using fox mount? interested in the middle Fox Stabilizer TS .
They help
ok, seriously - how much/fast do you have to turn the wheel back and forth to heat up the steering stabilizer? it's NOT a shock...
Does the Fox Ats race series fit a 2021 Jeep Gladiator Mojave
Yes it does
these mount up better on the JKs
What's up Rob I think your videos are great and very informative!
I just need a little guidance on installing the fox steering stabilizer , I'm going for the top of the line but I've got truss installed on my Axel , do i need to make any custom adjustments?
Don’t buy the 2.0 ts or ats!!! They have a defect Fox ain’t telling nobody. Basically where the shaft comes out the other end. The joint is smaller and weaker because the shaft has to move above it from the end. That clamp is cheap and breaks after one year. Buy the ifp cheap stock one. Notice how it doesn’t come with the clamp? Everything is sold.. the ones that have the shaft coming out the other end. That design has clamping issues. Look at the video, notice how fox has the clamps added because an after market clamp won’t work? That stock clamp breaks easily
Which setting on the ATS does the TS compare to?
Factory stabilizer is fine. The only reason to upgrade is if your stock is broken, or you want everyone to see your Fox brand upgrade.
The fox 2.0 shaft rust so you know!!
What about ford expedition el models with power steering
Hi good day can these stabilizers use on semi trucks too. This look like it came help with my steering alot but I'm driving a 583 peterbilt semi truck
Does this fix the sloppy steering that the Jeep Gladiator has?
My Fox 2.0 IFP has a Schrader valve on the end with a metal cap. Whats this for? Just service rebuild?
Hi Rob, what is the front bumper you have on your Jeep?
I have the Mopar 4" left that came with fox stabilizer well an up grade help with the bumpsteer I'm having?
I've changed all my ball joints power stiring unit and tie end rods. On my 2013 Rubicon .
I put the ATS on my 16 JKUR, running 37x13.5/17 and it was night and day difference. I had horrible bump steer and the Jeep loved to follow grooves in the road, especially on the freeway. I had no play in the suspension, ball joints etc were not worn out, just big aggressive tires doing what they do. The stabilizer help all the issues and it still drives tighter than when it was new. I had to dial in the adjustment for me and what I like. If I remember right I’m at 16 clicks, maybe 18 .. it’s been a while since I dialed it in. Started half way and tweaked it from there.
Edit - I know this was asked 5 months ago but no one had answered, so there you go.
Is it ok to rotate the piston to get it to line up so the adjustable port faces outside ?
Yes!
I have a 2018 jeep Sahara JL 2.0 turbo I picked up 2021 Jeep gladiator Fox suspension,will it on my Jeep Sahara? if not please explain and if there’s a way I can reach out to you a number of something
i have a 2021 jlur stock no lift on 33s would it be worth it as i'd like to make the direction a bit stiffer?
Hello I have a question. Can any one of those be installed or adspted to a Jeep Wagoneer?
To an older Wagoneer with a solid front axle? Yes, probably. To a newer Wagoneer with IFS, no.
s
What do you to offer for a 1996 JEEP CHEROKEE??
After lifting my Jeep 2.5 inches my Jeep shifts to the right. What should I do? Should I get this
No, you need to fix the issue not add more make up , the installation went wrong for sure
How much stiffer feeling than factory are any of these? On my jeep SRT i always ran the steering on the firmest setting and really got used to it. My JT steering wheel turns way too easy....
You would love the ATS then
Is the FOX TS IFP?
What's the knob/dial for on the racing series reservoir for? (I got this and had it installed but they threw out the manual)
Rob covers the adjustable dial at 7:22 in the video. This allows you to fine tune the stabilizer through 24 settings.
@@Quadratec I thought it was the flat head screw that did the 24 positions
@@Quadratec I am referring to the knob on the reservoir
Can you run two of these one for each side ?
You only need one.
Do you have to get an alignment after installing one of these
No, it does not change any suspension angles lift etc just direct replacement.
Stock sport JK steering on 35's, do you recommend changing other steering components as an upgrade when upgrading the stabilizer?
A. Stock stabilizers are perfectly fine. “Upgrade” stabilizers are bullshit. If your stock stabilizer isn’t broken, no need to replace.
B. Yes!! Upgrade your actual steering components. Drag link, track bar, knuckles, ball joints(if needed, or over 50k miles), etc.
Definitely upgrade steering components as Herban mentioned, but the ATS really shines compared to stock.
Fox overpriced buy falcon
And they all have plastic interior parts
