King Shocks 12in 2.0 PR Smoothie Shock Hose Remote Reservoir w/Compression Adjuster 7/8 Shaft

This is a King Shocks 12-inch 2.0 PR Smoothie shock absorber, featuring a hose-style remote reservoir and a 7/8-inch shaft with an adjustable compression control. King Shocks are well-known in the off-road community for their robust construction and tunable performance, and this particular shock is designed for enthusiasts looking to fine-tune their suspension's response for varied terrain and driving conditions. The remote reservoir helps manage heat buildup during extended use, which is crucial for maintaining consistent damping performance when you're pushing your vehicle hard.

The adjustable compression knob on the reservoir allows you to dial in the shock's stiffness for different situations. For instance, you can stiffen it up for high-speed desert running or soften it for crawling over rocks. This adjustability, combined with the large 2.0-inch diameter shock body and the smooth-bore design, means you get a well-built component that can handle significant abuse while providing a comfortable ride. The 7/8-inch shaft is strong and durable, built to withstand the rigors of off-road travel. This shock is a popular choice for custom suspension builds where precise control and reliable performance are paramount.

When installing these shocks, it's important to ensure proper mounting and routing of the remote reservoir hose to prevent kinks or damage. While this shock is sold individually, you'll typically want to replace shocks in pairs or all four corners of your vehicle to maintain balanced suspension performance. Always refer to the manufacturer's installation guide for specific details and recommendations to get the most out of your King Shocks.
