King Shocks 18in 3.0 Race Shock 4 Tube Bypass Hose Remote Reservoir 1in Shaft Large 3/4 Bypass Tubes

What you get with this King Shocks order is a single 18-inch, 3.0-inch diameter race shock absorber. This shock features a 1-inch diameter shaft and a remote reservoir for extra fluid capacity, which helps keep the shock cool under heavy use. It also includes four bypass tubes, each 3/4 inch in size, allowing for fine-tuning of the suspension's compression and rebound characteristics. This setup is designed for serious off-road applications where precise control and durability are essential.

The bypass tubes are a key feature here, letting you adjust how the shock behaves at different points in its travel. By routing fluid around the main piston, you can soften the initial part of the stroke or control the end of the compression cycle without affecting the rest of the travel. This level of adjustability is crucial for vehicles that see a lot of varied terrain, from high-speed desert runs to technical rock crawling. The large 3.0-inch body offers ample cooling surface area, and the remote reservoir further extends this capability, preventing shock fade during long, demanding events. The 1-inch shaft is robust, built to handle the stresses of competitive off-roading.

When setting up a vehicle for extreme off-road use, shocks like these are a critical component. They work in conjunction with your suspension geometry to manage wheel travel and maintain tire contact with the ground. Because these are bypass shocks with external adjustability, you'll want to work with a suspension specialist or consult King Shocks' technical resources to dial in the settings for your specific vehicle and driving style. This ensures you get the most out of the shock's advanced tuning capabilities.
