more machine work on fox shocks , and better paint /coatings . I mean just look at the reservoir can of a king shock. It looks like they just chopsawed a short piece of tubing and called it a day. look at the extra layer of detail that goes into the shock eyes on Fox. Fox shocks, you can swivel the entire shock body to re-orient the bypass tubes at the top shock eye. tuning bypass tubes is a lot easier on Fox versus very old-school bypass Allen lock nut adjuster design on kings. The upper coil spring collar is also double ring lock on a fox coil over not Alan clamp collar like a king the lower spring perch on a fox shock is much lower profile. Meaning you get a little bit extra spring length on the same travel shock . Also main shaft seal on fox leaks less and fox snap rings are insanely big (in case you accidentally use your shock as a limit strap). I’m sure king “race series” shocks are a lot better, but the ones most people buy the “pre-run series”/factory are cheaper for a reason much less machine, less detail in the shock, body and design. King customer service might be better. Which is important for most stupid Bros, who don’t have any mechanical ability and have never opened up a shock in their entire lives and just trust “kings bro gnar gnar”
More holes mean's nothing. If your argument is that more flow is better then 4 large wholes is better than 6 small holes. This video is pure speculation based on no math or any other logical data
Hi, i have a toyota tacoma 2021 offroad 4×4 and already have king shock 3” but i want to lift a little more, what i need to do it? Thanks.
Is there any cons on fully front lifting 3”s the Toyota Tacoma 3rd gen with these king shocks?
should I change my OEM rear sway bar links when going for KINGs 2.5s?
How to order coustom coilover from Kings
If king is made in the USA why is all there shit on backorder for long wait times???
Hello their, I have question if you don't mind
I installed 2.5" king on my f150 but I want to install 20" tires is this possible or should I use spacer or some other stuff
Thank you
Why do some kings extend on thier own and some don't
So the further down you pre load the collar of the coilover, the less lift you will get out of your vehicle?
I regret getting them.
can you please make a version of OME BP-51?
My 2021 RAM2500 4×4 I have a new king suspension. I’ve installed the OEM performance 2.0 shock with reservoir & adjustment knobs. Also change front coil spring and arm. Bed bounce at 70 mph +/- highway is still extremely rough regardless of adjustment.
What is your recommendation?
Cost for 2.5 coilovers rebuild (King)?
Is there a very noticeable ride quality with kings that have adjusters?
I got the eibach stage 2 on my tacoma. All thought its a Sligh improvement and look over stock. I'd like my ride to be a lil more softer on the trails almost like stock, and firm on road driving. Everytime I take my truck out to the trails, and the eibach be too stiff at times where my interior rattles like it's falling apart.
How much will a set of king shocks coast 2011 Silverado 1500
So can you make a video on the effects of psi in the reservoir to the compression dampening, ride quality.
I have fox factory race coilover with the 10" reservoir and have 200psi, preload is set fine (not fully extended) and bro shitbis like a wagon on patchy roads and minor bumps but offroad its actually not bad is it just fox? Or what is up?
Awesome of you that answer every single question, well done mate!
If kings changed the color they would sell more products. Blue just looks ugly in a shock
do you carry anything for the new chevy tahoe that helps with the ride feel, while keeping it looking stock?
How much difference in ride control do you notice with adding the SDI eClik to the King 2.5s?
