King 2.50" Smoothie Shocks w/Remote Reservoir & compression adjuster | 14.00" Stroke

/// King Performance Race Series shocks are built from the same materials and tolerances as the King race series shocks.

/// Smooth body shocks are hydraulic dampers designed to control suspension movement by precisely regulating hydraulic oil flow to control compression and rebound damping, improving vehicle stability, suspension control, and tire contact across changing terrain.

/// Coilover shocks utilize the same damping system while incorporating an adjustable coil spring assembly to support vehicle weight, establish ride height, and provide suspension preload. The shock controls suspension movement, while the coil spring supports the vehicle.

/// Remote and piggyback reservoirs increase hydraulic oil volume while utilizing a floating dividing piston to separate the hydraulic oil from a high-pressure nitrogen charge. Typically set to 150 PSI with the shock at full extension, the nitrogen charge maintains positive pressure within the hydraulic system, compensates for piston rod displacement during compression, and helps minimize oil aeration and cavitation for consistent damping performance.

/// Shock body diameter directly influences piston area, hydraulic oil volume, overall damping capacity, and thermal capacity. Larger shock bodies provide greater damping force, improved heat capacity, and enhanced thermal stability during prolonged or aggressive use. Selecting the proper shock diameter ensures damping performance is appropriately matched to the vehicle's weight, suspension travel, and intended application.

/// King Compression Adjuster provides external adjustment of compression damping without changing the shock's primary valve tuning. A dedicated compression circuit meters hydraulic oil flow into the reservoir, allowing compression damping to be precisely adjusted with the turn of a knob.

Lower settings allow more oil to bypass the metering piston for a more compliant suspension response, while higher settings progressively direct more oil through the metering piston, increasing compression damping, improving chassis control, and providing greater resistance to suspension impacts.

Compression adjustment functions only during the compression stroke, while rebound oil returns through the shock's primary rebound circuit. This one-way hydraulic circuit helps maintain positive oil pressure, reducing the likelihood of cavitation during aggressive suspension use.
