king shocks?

[MK-voy]

I came across this shock company that is used by team hummer in the dakar race http://www.kingshocks.com/ any idea about them??

Looks like 25001-150 might work. It's application is the Tahoe/Yukon 07+ as an OEM performance replacement.

Remote res is nice, but honestly, I'm not sure I've heard of anyone getting shock fade with the standard gas shocks from BDS/FOX.

You'd just have to shim the bottom with washers, per SOP.

I tried hard to induce shock fade with a few high speed runs over ten miles of desert washboards, and my gas BDS were fine. But to keep from shaking a hundred fasteners loose from the vehicle, I was also aired down, so the high frequency vibrations were mostly being absorbed by the tires and turned into heat there instead of in the shocks. So perhaps the definitive trail that needs remote reservoirs, if there are any and those shocks are functional and not just for the mall, just isn't suitable for the platform. I think they were developed for desert prerunners - high speed trail-explorers who do a lots of jumps and whoopsies. We don't have the suspension travel for that, and we're a bit (like a factor of two) too heavy.

I am running the SkyJacker Shocks with Marks old 2.5 and Z71 Springs no issues when I have weight in the back. It tops out when I don't have weight in the back

You might want to contact AlekG, hes the only one I remember that has the skyjacker springs.

He does have a website: http://88xpeditions.blogspot.com/ He might have information there.

You might check with Hardtrailz, I think he is on the 25cr coils now as well. IIRC
