King Performance Shocks for Chevrolet GMC

King Performance Chevrolet GMC Shocks

King’s new line of 'original equipment manufacturer' (OEM shock upgrade kits provide a bolt on suspension system that elevates your on and off-road performance to unmatched levels. Each kit has been subjected to punishing real world testing to develop the optimal damping curves and spring rates for your vehicle. Built with the same quality of materials and precise tolerances found on King's high end race shocks, King's OEM upgrade kits enable you to experience the famous King ride quality on your daily driver or prerunner.

Built with race winning design features the kits come complete and provide simple 100% bolt on installation with no cutting or welding done to your vehicle. King's front kits provide an adjustable ride height and up to a 25% increase in wheel travel. Rear kits typically allow a 15% travel increase. Large 2.5” diameter shock bodies and external reservoirs dramatically increase fluid capacity and heat dissipation to provide sustained damping performance even under the most punishing conditions. King's OEM upgrade shocks feature the same serviceable design that allows for valve adjustments with simple hand tools just like their race shocks.

• Lightweight hard anodized 6063 aluminum alloy reservoirs dissipate heat quickly and will not rust due to gas charging contamination.
• High quality fittings are mated to Aeroquip high pressure hoses which resist abrasion and kinking
• Internally threaded top cap design threads over the shock body to enable maximum piston travel inside the shock body.
• The heat treated 6061 aluminum alloy piston has King's highly developed port configurations that contribute to the unique damping performance and famous King ride quality.
• 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.
• Large 3/4" or 7/8" diameter shafts have a minimum tensile strength of 100,000 pounds per square inch. They are hard chromed and micro-polished to a 6 RA finish for extended seal life.
• High strength rod end designed for proper clearance on your application. Steel Teflon lined spherical bearings for smooth articulation and long life with no metal to metal contact.
• Aluminum components and vehicle specific mounts are machined from aircraft quality billet. Front and rear kits all include all necessary vehicle specific mounting brackets and hardware along with detailed installation instructions. Technical support, if needed, is only a phone call or email away.
