King Shocks 2.5 PR Smoothie Shock Hose Remote Reservoir w/IBP - 18in Travel

If you're building a custom off-road rig or upgrading a performance suspension for serious trail use, the King Shocks 2.5 PR Smoothie shock is designed to handle the demands. This shock absorber is engineered to provide exceptional damping control and heat dissipation, crucial for maintaining consistent performance over long, rough terrain. The 18 inches of travel it offers means your suspension can articulate and absorb large impacts, keeping your tires planted and your ride more controlled.

What sets this shock apart is its 2.5-inch diameter body, which houses a larger volume of oil compared to smaller shocks. This increased oil capacity is key to managing heat buildup, especially during extended periods of hard use like long descents or high-speed desert running. The Integrated Bypass (IBP) technology allows for adjustable damping zones, meaning you can fine-tune how the shock reacts to different types of terrain – softer for small bumps and firmer for larger impacts. The remote reservoir further aids in cooling by separating oil and gas, preventing aeration and fade. This setup is built with robust materials and King's well-known attention to detail, ensuring it can withstand the harsh conditions of off-road exploration.

This shock is sold individually, so you'll need to order the correct quantity for your vehicle's suspension setup. While this shock offers extensive travel, ensure your vehicle's chassis, control arms, and other suspension components are capable of safely accommodating the full 18 inches of travel. Proper installation and setup are critical for achieving the intended performance and longevity.
