SMOOTHIE REMOTE RESERVOIR

2.0 / 2.5 / 3.0 - UNIVERSAL SERIES

Designed for use with existing coils, torsion bars or leaf springs, King Smooth Body Shocks are built from the same materials and to the same tolerances as our top of the line Race Shocks.

Their smooth good looks are matched by their smooth performance. These versatile shocks can be built in several configurations to fit your needs and are fully serviceable and adjustable with simple tools.

Available with a remote reservoir, piggyback reservoir or pure emulsion we can build shocks to fit whatever and wherever you drive. A set of King, Smooth Body Shocks, are all you need to make your suspension perform to its full potential.

Features

BODY

Shock cylinders are bored and honed after cadmium plating to ensure a cylindrical and efficient piston seal that enhances valve function.

COMPONENTS

Highly developed port designs on our 6061 aluminium alloy piston provide the famous King ride quality.

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.

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.

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.
