King Shocks 8in Dual Rate Springs 3.0 PR Coilover Shock Hose Remote Reservoir w/o Springs

These King Shocks 3.0 PR Coilover shocks feature an 8-inch dual-rate spring setup and a hose-style remote reservoir, designed for serious off-road performance. The 3.0-inch diameter shock body allows for a larger volume of oil and a bigger piston, which helps manage heat and provides consistent damping control even during extended, hard use. The hose-style remote reservoir is crucial for keeping the shock oil cool; it can be mounted remotely from the shock body to draw in cooler air, further improving heat dissipation and preventing shock fade on rough terrain.

The dual-rate spring system is a key feature for off-road applications. It uses two springs of different rates on the same shaft. At slower speeds or smaller impacts, the lighter spring handles the initial compression, offering a more comfortable ride and better small bump compliance. As the suspension compresses further or encounters larger obstacles, the heavier spring engages, providing the necessary resistance to prevent bottoming out and maintain control. This setup offers a noticeable improvement in ride quality and handling across a wide range of conditions, from washboard roads to high-speed desert runs.

This particular model is sold without springs, giving you the flexibility to choose the exact spring rates that best match your vehicle's weight and your intended use. This allows for a truly custom suspension setup. The shock body is constructed from strong, clear-anodized aluminum for durability and corrosion resistance, while the internal components are built to King's well-known standards for reliable performance. Remember to consult the manufacturer's installation instructions for proper setup and spring selection to achieve optimal performance for your specific vehicle.
