Lift Damper Upgrade Kit for Fox and Marzocchi Forks

Raise your confidence and your fork’s performance with a Lift Damper upgrade. Lift Damper cartridges are easy to install and provide an immediate performance upgrade. There are five tunes offered for the Lift, matching rider weights from 110-270 lbs. Weight-specific shim-stacks provide riders with perfectly matched damping and full usability of the external rebound and compression adjustment ranges. Valving has been optimized to deliver a seamless crossover from the low to high-speed circuits and provide a predictable and responsive terrain-hugging ride. Flow-path optimization and advanced needle shaping have minimized fluid turbulence, yielding quiet operation and superior sensitivity. Through a careful reduction in dynamic seals and by utilizing the latest bushing material from industry-leader IGUS, stiction has been virtually eliminated. Lift Dampers turn good forks into great forks.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

FIVE AVAILABLE TUNES

White (110-150 lbs. / 50-68 kgs.), Yellow (140-180 lbs. / 64-82 kgs.), Green (170-210 lbs. / 77-95 kgs.), Blue (200-240 lbs. / 91 -109 kgs.), and Red (230-270 lbs. / 105-123 kgs.). Shown with compression adjustment fully open.

ISOLATED CONTROL

Lift's seamless crossover from low to high-speed damping means the external low-speed compression adjustment can be set anywhere in range and have little to no effect on high-speed damping.

SUPPLE AND SUPPORTED

Compared to competitors' dampers, Lift displays remarkably low baseline damping at low-speeds and increases damping with greater speed-sensitivity.

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.
