Kings Maintenance

One of the posts mentioned 30K miles for Kings rebuild. If you were racing Baja, this would apply. If you're fragging the crap out of the shaft with rocks on the rear shocks, this might apply.

Otherwise, as a daily driver/occasional trail-taker, you can get 75-100K before a rebuild. Rebuild kits are around $35-40 and shafts are roughly $60 (Filthy Motorsports). Obviously this can vary depending on whether standard or some sort of custom shock. Barring physical damage and loss of nitrogen, you might eventually get some fade as they heat up. Swap the oil and you're back in the game.

Regardless of Kings or not, hose clamp a flat piece of 1/8" thick X 3" wide rubber on the front of the rear shock to protect the shaft from roost off the front tires, fluid film or WD40 the bodies, and they'll last a lot longer.
