What is the main benefit of a long fin reservoir assembly?

The long fin design significantly increases the surface area of the reservoir. This allows for more efficient heat dissipation from the shock fluid, helping to prevent overheating and maintain consistent damping performance during hard use.

What does the expanded fluid capacity do for my shocks?

A larger reservoir holds more shock fluid. This extra volume acts as a heat sink, absorbing and dissipating heat generated by the shock absorber's internal valving. This helps prevent shock fade and can extend the life of your shock components.

What else might I need to install this reservoir assembly?

You will likely need appropriate hoses and fittings to connect the reservoir to your specific King Shocks model. It's recommended to consult the manufacturer's installation guide or contact King Shocks directly to ensure you have all the necessary components for a secure and functional setup.

Product Details

King Shocks is well-known for building high-performance suspension components for off-road vehicles. This 16-inch long, 4.5-inch outside diameter reservoir assembly is designed to work with their 4.0/4.5 RS series shocks, offering an expanded fluid capacity. Adding a larger reservoir helps manage heat buildup in your shocks during demanding use, which can lead to more consistent damping performance and a longer shock life.

This assembly features a long fin design, which increases the surface area for heat dissipation compared to smooth-bodied reservoirs. The construction is solid, built to withstand the rigors of off-road environments. It's intended to be a direct replacement or addition for compatible King Shocks, ensuring a proper fit and function within their system. Proper installation is key to maximizing the benefits of this component, so refer to the manufacturer's instructions for details on mounting and connecting it to your shock absorbers.

When you're pushing your vehicle hard, especially in off-road conditions where shocks work overtime, managing heat is critical. This reservoir assembly is a key part of that system, helping to keep your shocks performing optimally. Ensure you have the correct fittings and hoses to connect this reservoir to your specific King Shocks model.
