For those of you with King's

This is a question for those of you running King's in coastal regions where the vehicle sees a lot of beach use or is exposed to coastal air and/or those of you who might be in an area where they are exposed to road salts and other chemicals in the winter months.

How are the shock bodies holding up? Are they susceptible to corrosion and if so did it set in quickly or did it take a few years? Are there precautions one can periodically take to slow this such as spraying some sort of lubricant or sealant on the shocks?

I live near the coast and I frequent the beach almost weekly and I want to be sure that my investment isn't getting eaten away in short order and if there's a chance I want to get ahead of it.

i have corrosion on one of my rear shocks on my 3 year old kings. I do live by the beach.

Yeah, i would buy some cheapo clear coat in a can if i were you.
 
I don’t frequent the beach but I will tell you the kings have held up a lot better than the Icons I’ve ran before.
