King vs. Everyone

I'm running 650's with mine.Tube bumper ,9500 winch with synthetic line and soon to be full Budbuilt skid plates.
Thought about 700's but glad I settled on 650's as I love em. I had OME 881's with nitrochargers on the front and a noticeable upgrade.

 

think itll be okay with the skid plates?

I have icons with 600# springs and I think I need a spring upgrade.

I have a winch with synthetic line and a hybrid bumper.. soon will have skids..

Been eyeing king springs for the blue

 

I am running 600 right now. I have a plate bumper being built and might stay with the 600. Bit will probably go to 650 when I get a winch.

 

600#

 

600 lbs

 

600. Will need to step up to 650's with skids and bumper

 

(Note the place I took these pics at was trashed when we got there. We left it cleaner than we found it.)


Ext travel kings up front, non resi
Built right uca's
Dakars and ome shocks in the rear
285/75r16's

Rubs the frame a little bit at full lock, had to beat the pinch weld back a lot.

Sorry for the crappy pics, i haven't taken my truck out for a while so these are what I've got.

 

Nothing rides like a King. Love mine.

 

them relocated piggybacks lookn all sexy like.

 

Some people really piss me off. You go out to enjoy nature only to find prior asshats treated it like a dumping ground. I'd love to dump all their shit on their front lawn. Thanks for cleaning up after them, I always do the same. Your truck looks great btw.

 

Yeah this is a really popular area for shooting. There are massive cleanups by volunteers 2x a year but it takes no time for people to come out and trash the place again.

Thanks!

 

Hell yeh I already have the method nvs sitting in my garage waiting on the suspension&tires. Don't ask me why I bought rims first

 

Hey @Adventurer_Alex , are your fender flares OEM?

 

Yes

 

Ordering full kit from DSMS next week. Do I need to buy anything besides what comes with the kit? I.e. U-bolts, extended brake line? Also, if you have installed a 2-3inch coilover lift on 01 Tacoma please comment about any issues you had while installing, tips and tricks, or whatever will make install smoother. Yalls info has been much appreciated. Thankyou tw -Ryan

 

Extended brake lines are recommended, but depend on your current leaf setup. If you're replacing leaves, recommend new u-bolts. Depending on mileage, recommend new shackles.

You don't NEED extended front brake lines, but there's no harm in installing them. I've had a set sitting in my garage for a while, just haven't had a reason to put them in.

 

Congrats!Are you getting new UCA's too.Here's the part number and info from DSM.Call or pm them for a discount.

Do they still offer a Tacoma world discount? I thought they did away with that and just offer the lowest price always? If they still do that's awesome And yes I will be getting new ucas,coilovers, rear shocks, and leafs

 

Oh yea ,they give a discount like 50% to TW members........just kidding it was 5% I think.lol

Then with new UCA's the hardest part of the install for me on 1st gens ,by far, is pressing the factory upper ball joints out of the spindle inside the wheel well and I had a ball joint press kit.
If I had to do it again I would take the wheel hubs off and press them out on a bench press.

 

Hell yeh Thankyou. I messaged DSMS yesterday about the discount! Patiently waiting now
