King Shocks 8in 3.0 PR Shock 3 Tube Bypass Hose Remote Reservoir Style 1

This is the King Shocks 8-inch 3.0 three-tube bypass shock with a remote reservoir, part number PR3008-BP3H-1. King Shocks are well-known in the off-road community for their robust construction and tunable performance, and this bypass shock is designed to offer a significant improvement in damping control for vehicles used in demanding off-road conditions. The bypass design allows fluid to flow around the main piston, giving you adjustable damping characteristics that can be tuned for different terrains and driving styles. This means you can fine-tune how the suspension reacts to bumps and impacts, providing a more comfortable ride and better control when you need it most.

Built with a 3-inch diameter shock body, this unit offers a larger fluid capacity and greater cooling potential compared to smaller shocks, which is crucial for preventing fade during extended use or high-speed driving. The three external bypass tubes allow for a wide range of adjustment; by changing the position of the collars on these tubes, you alter the path the oil takes, effectively changing the compression and rebound damping. This adjustability is key for dialing in your suspension for everything from crawling over rocks to high-speed desert running. The included remote reservoir further enhances cooling and provides additional oil volume, ensuring consistent performance even under extreme stress. The shock is designed for a specific mounting length, and while fitment isn't specified here, these are typically used in custom or performance suspension builds where precise tuning is a priority.

When installing a shock like this, it's important to understand that the bypass adjustments are a significant tuning tool. You'll want to consult with King Shocks or a suspension specialist to understand how to best set the bypass collars for your specific vehicle and intended use. Proper installation and adjustment are key to unlocking the full potential of this advanced suspension component. This shock is sold individually, so be sure to order the correct quantity for your vehicle's axle.
