What is the benefit of a bypass shock?

Bypass shocks allow you to independently adjust damping in different parts of the suspension stroke. This means you can tune how the shock reacts to small bumps versus large impacts, offering more control and a better ride over varied terrain.

Why does the piggyback reservoir matter?

The piggyback reservoir holds extra shock fluid, which helps dissipate heat more effectively. This prevents the shock from overheating and losing performance (shock fade) during intense use, like off-roading or racing.

Is this shock a direct bolt-on replacement?

No, this shock is intended for custom suspension applications and will require fabrication for mounting. It is not a direct replacement for most factory shock absorbers.

Product Details

King Shocks is well-known for building high-performance suspension components for off-road racing and serious enthusiasts. This 14-inch, 2.5-inch diameter race shock is a prime example of their commitment to advanced suspension tuning. It features a 2-tube bypass design with a piggyback reservoir, allowing for extensive adjustability to fine-tune your vehicle's handling across varied terrain.

The bypass tubes on this shock allow you to control the damping characteristics independently in different parts of the suspension stroke. This means you can dial in a softer feel for small bumps while still maintaining firm control during large impacts or landings. The piggyback reservoir holds extra oil, which helps keep the shock cool under heavy use, preventing fade and ensuring consistent performance. With a robust 7/8-inch shaft and large 3/4-inch bypass tubes, this shock is built to withstand the rigors of demanding off-road conditions.

This shock is designed for custom suspension builds where precise control and adjustability are paramount. While specific vehicle fitment isn't listed, this type of shock is commonly used in long-travel suspension systems for trucks and off-road vehicles. Installation will require custom fabrication and mounting, as it's not a direct bolt-on for most factory applications. It's a solid option for those looking to significantly upgrade their suspension's capability and tuneability.
