    They have 2 different leaf packs for that kit and a few builds to look at. The Morroco Taco and the 2013 builds use that kit. Call over there and talk with Pat about it!

    I was going this route when I purchased some 14s. I have since decided to just remail SOA and keep the money I have invested in it vs starting over again.

    I should say too that you don't actually need to use a pinch style mounting can with these, you can weld the steel body of the bump itself straight to the truck. I wanted to use the can just for the long term stupidity upgrade possibilities ...because I tend to get stupid like that :facepalm: Pinch cans are only $25 each just about anywhere so for $100 total for all 4 corners and the upgrade capability the cans were worth the $ for me.

    Yea, I should add a can/ bump section in the FAQ. Who just bought the Fox bumps? Was it @Palehorse1 ?

    These are sweet! Does anyone have a direct comparison vs actual air pumps?

    An air bump is more fine tunable because you can vary the PSI...and they say King or Fox on them which pulls way more ho's at the mall :thumbsup:


    With the Daystars you have three options :

    2 - black EVS inserts = stiff

    2 - blue EVS inserts = soft

    1 black + 1 blue = medium

    ...and you still have $400 extra to spend on beers :cheers:

    If you look at the difference in the cans from Fox to King on the TC site you will notice that the King can sits higher on the mount. I would bet TC accounted for the correct full bump location in the King mount. King bumps have a threaded back end so they screw into their can but you can mount them in a regular pinch can too.

    Ahhhh OK good to know. I would want to buy the Fox mounts, cheaper, and adjustable, then just put some king bumps in them. Any reason why the threaded mount would be significantly better than the pinch one?

    Best guess is the can is easier to slip through a pinch mount vs rotational. Probably not anything to be worried about either way as long as there is routine checking
