King Shocks 8in 2.5 PR Coilover Shock Piggyback Reservoir w/o Springs w/Compression Adjuster

This is a King Shocks 2.5-inch diameter coilover shock assembly, designed for an 8-inch stroke and featuring a piggyback reservoir. It comes without springs, allowing you to select the exact spring rate needed for your specific vehicle and intended use. The integrated compression adjuster lets you fine-tune the shock's damping characteristics, giving you more control over ride quality and handling, especially in demanding off-road conditions. This shock is a well-built component for those looking to significantly upgrade their vehicle's suspension system.

The piggyback reservoir design helps to keep the shock oil cooler under heavy use, which means more consistent damping performance and a longer lifespan for the shock. This is particularly important when you're hitting trails hard or carrying extra weight. The 2.5-inch body is a popular size for many custom builds, offering a good balance of damping capacity and physical space requirements. The compression adjuster is a notable feature, allowing you to dial in the low-speed compression damping to manage body roll and bottoming resistance without affecting high-speed impacts. This level of adjustability is key for optimizing performance across varied terrain.

When installing these coilovers, remember they are sold without springs. You'll need to source appropriate King Shocks springs or compatible springs that match your vehicle's weight and your desired ride height and stiffness. Proper spring selection is crucial for the shock to perform as intended. It's always recommended to consult the manufacturer's installation guide or a qualified suspension professional to ensure correct setup and alignment after installation.
