King Shocks 3.0 PR 3-Tube Bypass Shock with Hose Remote (Style 2) – 12″ Travel

Engineered around a machined 3.0-inch primary housing and progressive-rate valving, this shock converts harsh factory damping into smooth, progressive compliance for liftedJeeps, trucks, and custom off-road builds.

• 3‑Tube Bypass Damping Circuit: Routes hydraulic fluid through three parallel stainless steel passages with tuned needle packs, delivering independent compression and rebound control that eliminates bounce-on-landing and maintains traction over successive impacts.
• Progressive Spring & Pistonefficiency: Factory-calibrated stepped pistons ramp up force application proportional to wheel deflection, preserving small-bump compliance while preventing understeer, squat, or sway during aggressive trail climbing and highway transit.
• Hose-Mounted Remote Accumulator (Style 2): Separates nitrogen gas and shock oil via reinforced flex-line routing to an external reservoir, reducing installed package width and simplifying clearance checks around aftermarket bumpers, brush guards, and wide‑track axles.
• Heavy‑Duty Hard Body Construction: Features a 6061‑billet aluminum main shaft, bronze guide bearings, and dual‑durometer PTFE wiper seals designed to resist corrosion, abrasive dust, and sustained high‑speed desert cycling without internal fretting.
• Universal Mount Geometry & Travel Specs: Delivers exactly 12.0 inches of wheel travel packaged at 40 inches loaded length and weighing 25 pounds; flat and ball‑eye hardware aligns with most custom upper/lower control arms and solid‑axle mounts.
• Field‑Serviceable Valve Stacks: Bolt‑together valve cartridges allow quick spring swapping or damper recalibration without disassembling the entire reservoir, extending maintenance windows compared to permanently welded monotube designs.

Fitting wider aftermarket steering knuckles or non‑OEM lift brackets requires verifying front‑to‑rear bushing centerlines before installation; the preset packed length pairs optimally with 7.5‑inch preload springs for 6‑ to 8‑inch lift configurations. Every unit ships pressure‑tested for seal integrity and covered by King Shocks’ limited lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects.
