What is a bypass shock and why would I use one?

A bypass shock allows fluid to flow around the main piston through adjustable bypass tubes. This lets you tune how the shock reacts at different points in its travel, offering more control for specific terrains like washboard roads or high-speed desert driving.

What is the benefit of a piggyback reservoir?

The piggyback reservoir holds extra shock oil, which helps to keep the shock cooler during intense use. This improved cooling reduces the risk of shock fade and maintains consistent damping performance when you need it most.

Does this shock come with mounting hardware?

This product listing is for the shock absorber assembly itself. Mounting hardware, such as bolts, bushings, or specific brackets, is typically sold separately and depends on your custom suspension design. Refer to your suspension builder's recommendations for necessary hardware.

Product Details

If you're building a custom suspension for serious off-road use, you know that fine-tuning your damping is key. This King Shocks 2.0 3-tube bypass shock is designed to give you that precise control. It features a piggyback reservoir, which holds extra oil and helps keep the shock cool under heavy use, and a 7/8 inch shaft for robust performance. The bypass design allows you to adjust how the shock reacts to different shaft positions, giving you the ability to dial in the ride for everything from washboard roads to high-speed desert runs.

King Shocks are well-known in the off-road community for their durability and performance. This particular shock uses a 2.0-inch diameter body, which is a popular size for many custom applications, and a 3-tube bypass system. This means you have three separate tubes that control fluid flow, offering more adjustment points than simpler bypass designs. The piggyback reservoir is mounted directly to the shock body, making for a clean installation and ensuring the oil is readily available to manage heat. The 7/8 inch shaft is strong and built to handle the stresses of off-road driving.

When setting up a custom suspension, shocks like these are often paired with specific control arms and springs to achieve the desired travel and performance. Because this is a bypass shock, it's intended for vehicles where the suspension geometry is being significantly altered or optimized for specific terrain. You'll want to consult with your suspension builder or refer to King Shocks' technical resources to determine the best placement and valving for your specific build. This shock is a solid option for those looking to achieve a highly tunable and capable suspension system.
