What we do to a Prado 250
The 250 is new enough that most suspension on the market is a generic lift. King Shocks are built to application, so a set for a 250 accounts for its actual geometry and weight rather than adapting something designed for a different vehicle. Fit it early and you never live with the standard compromise.
- ▸Application specific King Shocks front and rear
- ▸Correct geometry maintained through the lift
- ▸Valving for touring or dirt road use
- ▸Fitted and set up in house
We import and distribute them ourselves
Direct importer pricing
We import and distribute King Shocks in South Africa ourselves, so you buy at importer pricing instead of paying a reseller margin on top.
Stock and support locally
Valving changes, rebuilds and warranty support happen here, not on a three month round trip to the United States.
Set up, not just bolted on
A shock is only as good as its setup. We spec valving and ride height around your vehicle, your load and your terrain, then fit it in our own workshop.
From enquiry to road tested
Tell us how you drive
Touring, overlanding, farm work, racing or daily driving. Load, tyre size, and what the vehicle already carries.
We spec the set
Coilover or remote reservoir, spring rate and valving chosen for that answer, not off a shelf.
Fitment and setup
Fitted at one of our four branches, ride height set, corner balanced and road tested before you take it.
Rebuild and revalve
When the terrain or the load changes, the same set gets re-tuned rather than replaced.
Four branches
Silverlakes, Brits, Potchefstroom and Bloemfontein. Fitted and set up by our own people.
