What is the purpose of the bypass tubes on this shock?

The bypass tubes allow you to adjust the shock's damping characteristics. By controlling the path of the shock fluid, you can fine-tune how the suspension compresses and rebounds, giving you more control over ride quality and handling.

Why is a remote reservoir important for a race shock?

A remote reservoir holds extra shock fluid, which helps to dissipate heat more effectively. This keeps the shock oil cooler during intense use, preventing performance loss due to overheating and maintaining consistent damping.

What kind of applications is this King Shocks bypass shock best suited for?

This shock is designed for high-performance off-road vehicles, particularly those used in racing or extreme terrain. The adjustability and robust construction make it ideal for demanding applications where precise suspension tuning is critical.

Product Details

King Shocks is well-known for building high-performance suspension components that stand up to tough off-road conditions. This 12-inch, 3.5-inch diameter race shock is a prime example, featuring a 5-tube bypass hose and a remote reservoir. The bypass tubes allow you to fine-tune the shock's damping characteristics by controlling fluid flow, giving you more control over how your suspension reacts to different terrain. This is especially important for racing or extreme off-roading where precise suspension tuning can make a significant difference in performance and handling.

The large 3/4-inch bypass tubes and the 1-inch diameter shaft are built to handle the stresses of demanding use. The remote reservoir helps to keep the shock oil cooler during extended periods of hard work, preventing shock fade and maintaining consistent damping performance. This shock is designed for serious off-road applications where adjustability and robust construction are paramount. The bypass system offers a unique level of tuning capability, allowing you to dial in the compression and rebound characteristics to match your specific vehicle setup and driving style.

When installing these shocks, it's important to follow the manufacturer's guidelines for proper setup and adjustment of the bypass tubes. This shock is a significant upgrade for any vehicle focused on off-road performance and competition, offering a substantial improvement in control and adjustability over standard suspension components.
