King Shocks 3.0 PR 3-Tube Bypass Shock with 18-Inch Travel — Style 2 Hose Remote Reservoir
Engineered for sustained off-road cycling and competitive racing, this King Shocks 3.0 Performance Race shock delivers precise 18 inches of controlled wheel articulation through a dual-bypass internal circuit and externally routed hydraulic lines.
-
Targeted Bypass Tuning: The 3.0 PR architecture splits damping forces across a primary piston and a secondary external bypass circuit, allowing independent control of bump and compression phases to eliminate harshness while maintaining consistent tracking over whoops and ruts.
-
Machined 6061-T6 Aluminum Billet Body: Constructed from precision CNC-milled aluminum cylinders and hardened 5160 Chromium-Vanadium steel shafts, the shock resists denting, corrosion, and fatigue from repeated high-G impacts common in rock crawling and desert running.
-
Style 2 Hose Remote Flexibility: Heavy-duty reinforced nitrile rubber crossovers and tool-free quick-disconnect fittings let you route the reservoir away from exhaust heat, frame pinch points, and tight suspension geometry without sacrificing damping consistency or adding excessive dead volume.
-
Universal Fitment Platform: Designed as a direct aftermarket replacement for custom tube chassis, lifted trail rigs, and purpose-built buggies; the stock eyelets bolt straight to standard aftermarket shock tabs or light fabrication without requiring proprietary spacers or adapter kits.
-
Volumetric Oil Capacity & Thermal Stability: The oversized internal bore increases fluid displacement and heat dissipation surface area, preventing fade during consecutive steep descents, towing operations, or multi-hour backcountry expeditions where conventional monotube shocks overhear under load.
Weighing roughly 25 pounds with a compact footprint near 40 inches in length, this unit integrates cleanly into mid-to-long travel suspension layouts without dominating track width or ground-clearance margins. Compatible with most domestic and import off-road powertrains when matched to factory or aftermarket control arm bushings, making it a drop-in performance upgrade that outlasts budget alternatives while holding alignment settings mile after mile.
