What is the purpose of the remote reservoir?

The remote reservoir holds extra shock oil, which increases the shock's capacity and helps dissipate heat more effectively. This reduces the chance of shock fade during prolonged or hard use, especially off-road.

How is this shock different from a standard shock absorber?

This shock features a larger 3.0-inch body and a remote reservoir, both of which contribute to significantly better heat management and damping performance under demanding conditions compared to a standard, internal-reservoir shock.

What is the benefit of the 1-inch shaft?

A larger diameter shaft, like the 1-inch shaft on this shock, is stronger and more resistant to bending or damage from impacts encountered during off-road driving. It also contributes to the overall damping consistency.

Product Details

King Shocks is well-known for building high-performance suspension components for off-road racing and serious trail use. This 14-inch 3.0 Race Smoothie shock with a hose-remote reservoir and a 1-inch shaft is a prime example of their commitment to durability and performance. It’s designed to handle the rigors of demanding terrain, offering improved damping control and heat dissipation compared to standard shocks.

The 3.0-inch diameter body allows for a larger volume of oil, which helps keep the shock cool under heavy use, preventing fade. The remote reservoir is connected via a hose, giving you flexibility in mounting it to better manage heat and access it for service. Inside, the 1-inch diameter shaft is robust and built to withstand impacts and the stresses of off-road driving. This shock is a well-built unit, intended for custom suspension setups where precise damping and reliable performance are critical.

When installing a shock like this, it’s important to consider how the remote reservoir will be mounted. Proper placement can help ensure it stays protected and allows for optimal cooling. This shock is sold individually, so you'll need to purchase the correct quantity for your vehicle's suspension setup. Refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for specific details on mounting and setup.
