Lift V2 Damper Upgrade Kit for Fox and Marzocchi Forks

BRAND NEW LIFT V2 DAMPER IS THE ULTIMATE DROP-IN PERFORMANCE UPGRADE FOR YOUR FORK.

Lift V2 offers a wider range of damping adjustments than the top mainstream dampers, with internal valving finely tuned to match your weight. Unlike stock dampers that often add unnecessary controls — which provide more placebo effect than actual damping improvement — Lift V2 focuses on delivering exceptional performance right out of the box. You can quickly fine-tune your setup with simple yet powerful singular compression and rebound dials, ensuring your ride is dialed to perfection

The Lift V2 is available in five updated tunes, designed to accommodate rider weights ranging from 110 to 270 lbs. These color-coded shim stacks have been meticulously developed to ensure optimal damping ranges are available for riders of all sizes. Forget the external controls found on one-size-fits-all dampers that only get you to a “good enough” setup, Lift V2 gets you to perfection. 

Compared to our V1 tunes, we’ve maintained strong maximum compression damping levels while significantly increasing flow at the minimum setting. This creates a lighter feel at the open end of the range and offers greater overall tunability. We’ve also increased low-speed compression damping at the closed end of the range, providing a firm, supportive setting that’s perfect for steep, prolonged climbs. Just one click off the max setting, you’ll notice a sharp drop in compression damping, with the subsequent positions offering smaller, more gradual reductions for precise fine-tuning.

On the rebound side, we’ve refined the damping gradation, spreading the adjustment effects more evenly across the full range. Additionally, the upgraded rebound control knob offers a better tactile feel for precise adjustment.

Lift V2 dampers come pre-bled and dyno-verified for optimal performance, ready to be installed by most home mechanics in just minutes — with no specialty tools required. Top caps feature a cassette tool interface, while the revised casting interface hardware now use 5mm hex keys. The set screw on the all-new rebound knob now utilizes a commonly available 2.5mm hex key.

Upgrade to the Lift V2 Damper and elevate your riding experience to a whole new level.

Better than Fox

Better than new Fox Grip X2 dampers. Rebound is stand out better. No need for HSC knob.
Damper upgrade is worth 10 times more than air spring upgrade

I just installed the lift damper on my 2020 Fox 36 Performance. I was never impressed with the GRIP damper on the fox, decided to give MRP a whirl having used their products since the early 2000's (bones crankset was awesome). I also have an older Raze coil shock on my "buddy bike," and have been impressed how good it still feels after 11 years of not servicing it, ever (whoops)! This lift damper seems to be really good, maybe a little too supportive if I match the same PSI I was using on the Grip damper, dropped 10-15psi and it seems to be very nice. It's paired with an MRP Ramp Control Pro and Push Industries fork seals/maxima oil. Decided to erase any evidence of Fox making this a true franken-fork. My only concern so far is that the rebound feels non-existent and I have it set 1-2 clicks from closed to slow it down - otherwise it feels a like a pogo stick. The instructions also didn't make it clear whether I should use the crush washer on the damper side with my push fork seal kit. I didn't install it, but it felt wrong after decades of DIY suspension services. I am excited to take it to my favorite local trail and do hawt lapz with the toddler.

Excellent upgrade

I was about to give up and sell my Fox 36 grip 2. However, I saw this damper and decided to pull the trigger as I really wanted to love the fork and saw good reviews. On the first ride, I was able to get it dialed in where I could never with the grip 2. I love the simplicity of only two adjustments and the Tunes by weight range. I’m sure the grip 2 is great if you get it dialed, but I unfortunately don’t get to ride that often so it’s important I don’t have to spend all my time messing with knobs when I get to. Find myself loving my fork the way I should now. Thanks for fixing my fork MRP!

This turned my "OK" fork into a top performer

My basic Fox 38 Grip had good initial stroke sensitivity but lacked a lot of mid-travel support and blowed through its travel way too easily, leading to harsh landings on rough drops and rocky sections. The MRP Lift damper absolutely solved all the issues I had with the original damper. The green tune is absolutely spot on for my weight/riding style. The support is absolutely perfect, it just uses the travel it really needs without packing. The adjustment range is more than enough and each click is noticeable. Installing was a breeze, the instructions were clear and easy to follow. This was absolutely worth the money, it turned my 38 into a top-performing fork. It's just a shame it was impossible to get this in Europe, there was no support at all from the distributors. So I had to buy directly from MRP and pay the hefty importing fees.

Awesome Upgrade

I installed the Lift damper in my Fox Performance 38 and it transformed the fork. It’s very smooth and supportive now.
