King Shocks 3.0 x 14 RS 3-Tube Bypass Hose Reservoir Race Shock

The 3-inch diameter body and 14-inch stroke on this King Shocks bypass race shock are built for serious off-road performance. This shock uses a 3-tube bypass design, meaning it has two external tubes that control fluid flow independently of the main piston. This allows for fine-tuning of compression and rebound damping characteristics, giving you more control over how the suspension reacts to terrain. The hose reservoir is remote, which helps keep the shock cool under heavy use by allowing for more oil capacity and better heat dissipation. This is crucial for maintaining consistent damping performance during long, demanding off-road runs where heat buildup can otherwise degrade shock performance.

Constructed with a hard-anodized aluminum body, this shock is built to withstand the rigors of off-road racing and extreme conditions. The anodized finish not only looks good but also adds a layer of durability and corrosion resistance. Inside, the shock features a high-flow piston and a precisely valved bypass system, all designed to work together to provide a smooth yet controlled ride over rough surfaces. The bypass ports are strategically placed to allow fluid to bypass the main piston at specific points in the stroke, offering a unique damping curve that can be tuned for both plushness on small bumps and firm control on large impacts. This level of adjustability makes it a popular choice for custom suspension builds where precise tuning is essential.

This shock is sold individually. For a complete suspension setup, you'll typically need to purchase multiple shocks, along with appropriate mounting hardware and potentially other suspension components like control arms or links, depending on your vehicle's setup. Always refer to the manufacturer's installation guide for specific recommendations and best practices when integrating these shocks into your vehicle's suspension system.
