Alabama thread!

Go Atlanta! Sitting on my numbers, no more scoring this quarter!

 

NOOOOOOOOOOO!

 

What are you thinking for your new ones? I'm actually trying to figure out if a shackle flip would put me beyond my rear shock limit..

 

I'll look at Icon's to match the front. Need to see how they measure up flexed. Need to talk to @TacoFMS about shackle flip.

 

I sent a message to DSM as well, since they are the ones that mark the rears as "King RR Shocks -Dakar" lol. Just not sure the exact specs on them since they did that, I'm assuming they are the Extended Travel like my front coilovers.

 

@stronghammer if you don't mind me asking why you want to do the flip?

 

more down travel in the rear, lets the Dakars do their thing lol

 

@TheTacoma like so:

 

@TacoFMS has it done...https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/tacofms-attempt-at-a-build-thread.196309/

 

Ah! That's bad ass! Let me know what you find out. I am still considering a 12" shock in the rear.

 

you'd be good for it then. I believe the alternative to shackle flip is just doing a longer spring swap, like going chevy 63".

 

Behold, and witness the beginnings of an addiction.

 

Getting my tires today and will have them on and alignment done tomorrow

 

Damn big dog!

 

Hahaha got an advance on income tax and I been riding around on may pops so wife let me get em early and my bday is Wednesday so kinda my present also but on 285/75-16 how much trimming have y'all had to do ?

 

Feb 8th?

 

Yes sir

 

OK guys, I'm almost fully committed to my wheel choice for when I install my lift, thinking of going from the 17" stockies to the 16" TRD faux beadlock ones in black. With that said, I found a guy on facebook market place selling 5 nearly new KO2's (the fifth/spare has never been used, the others look as close to new as I've seen on used tires) in 265/75/16 for $400, only problem with is they are load range E rated. I've seen a lot of people on here stating that C is the way to go on these trucks. Is the difference really that noticeable?

 

I have that exact tire on my truck. Go for it, you will notice the E load but its not a big deal at all.

 

I can't comment on a "difference" but I like my E Rated. They have worn great (meaning not at all really), and they can take a load (more than necessary). I'd buy them again if they weren't so expensive, but I'll go a different route next time since there are cheaper options.
