COIL-OVER PIGGYBACK RESERVOIR
2.0 / 2.5 - UNIVERSAL SERIES
King Coil-Over Shocks provide the highest level of performance damping and suspension control for your vehicle. Their design allows for a space saving solution to your suspension mounting needs as they incorporate both the coil spring and shock absorber in one package.
They are used as a primary suspension member to carry the weight of the vehicle and to maintain ride height while providing the adjustable valving and high quality ride characteristics King is famous for. All of our coil over shocks are custom made for your application.
Our experienced designers work with you to determine the correct spring rate and valving you need to achieve ultimate performance. Our strict adherence to precision tolerances and quality materials insure you will own the finest coil over shocks available. Nothing rides like King.
Features
BODY
Our own truncated thread design produces ultimate strength and trouble free spring adjustments. Shock bodies are bored and honed after cadmium plating to ensure cylindricity and an efficient piston seal that enhances valve function.
COMPONENTS
Highly developed port designs on our 6061 aluminium alloy piston provide the famous King ride quality.
Pinch bolt design offers superior clamping force to retain your coil preload adjustments without crushing the threads like set screw style collars do.
SPRINGS
King coil springs are manufactured to our specifications in the USA using the finest quality, high tensile, chrome silicon wire available. Specifically wound for off-road applications, spring rates, wire diameters and coil lengths have been developed through extensive real world testing on all types of terrain.
Composite coil sliders maintain proper spring alignment and silent operation.
Progressive dual rate spring applications use lockable secondary nuts threaded onto the body to allow precise adjustment of secondary spring engagement.
SHAFT
Large ¾” or 7/8” diameter shafts have a tensile strength of 100,000 pounds per square inch. They are hard chromed to combat rock bruising and micro-polished to a 6 RA finish for extended seal life.
PISTON
Shocks cylinders are precision bored within x/- .001 then honed after zinc plating to remove buildup for a tight piston seal and optimum valving function.
MOUNTING
Replaceable Teflon lined stainless steel spherical bearings will not rust and provide smooth articulation with no metal to metal contact.
SEALS
Special long wearing urethane seals have been tested on 18 wheelers for 450,000 miles without a failure.
Valving
Heat treated stainless alloy valve shims do not fracture like plain carbon steel and resist deformation at high temperatures providing consistent fade free performance.
Wear bands are made from a Rulon composite that offers incredible wear resistance, low deformation under load and high compressive strength. Overlapping end design enhances sealing.
Reservoir
Lightweight hard Anodised 6063 aluminium alloy reservoirs dissipate heat quickly and will not rust due to gas charging contamination. Several colours are available to match your vehicle.
High quality fittings are mated to Aeroquip high pressure hoses on remote reservoir designs which resist abrasion and allow a tighter bend radius without kinking like braided stainless or cloth lines do.
“Piggyback” style shocks offer a simple, durable reservoir mounting option.
