King air shocks
« on: June 18, 2010, 07:56:48 PM »
 I have 4 new King brand 10" stoke air shocks... need BIGGER for my jeep. I'd like to trade up for new (with cash) or used (straight or plus cash) for something around 14" to 18" length. They have been mounted and have a few scratches from that and have never been filled. I spent about $1200.00 for them with tax and all, I'd entertain offers.........

How long ago did you purchase them, because king has upgraded some of the internals parts in the last 1 year. What is the valving in those shocks?  8) 8) 8)

 I have no idea on the valving. I've had them for about a year, not sure if they are the upgraded ones or not.

The only way to know is to disassemble one of those shocks. I think the standard valving is 12 / 15, unless to specify the valving you want. The two upgraded parts are a locking nut that holds down the valve stack and a hardened steel washer that the aluminum puck stops the shaft against. 8) 8) 8)

 They would be standard valving... I'm not about to dissasemble 'em though, they're too new and I can't afford the time now.

BTT.....need to sell or trade these off. I'm in need of some 14" shocks, not sure on what I want though. I am at the point of starting the suspension on my jeep(buggy) and trying to figure out if I should keep it simple and go coils and regular shocks (not fast offroad) or save my pennies and go airs or coil overs.
