    800s are way to stiff, step down to 700s.

    and springy? i bet you dont have enough down travel so your ride is shit. try lowering your front ride height a bit.


    edit:
    jack up your truck, if your tires have less than 3 inches of down travel from ride height, that is why.

    King states in the instructions that I got 1" of down travel.

    1" minimum! More is better.

    how does king state in the instructions how much down travel you have? that is all dependent on how YOU have the shock set up, and what application it is on.

    if you only have 1 inch of down travel your truck must ride like absolute SHIT.
    unless your talking about 1 inch of shock shaft which would equal a little over 2 inches at the wheel.....
