King Shocks Group Buy - Closed

Hey guys, just checking in to see the progress with the orders/shipping. I've been trying my darndnest to stay off TW so anxiety doesn't kill me lol but i'm back! never mind me, i'll be just lurking over here..

 

Look a few posts before yours

 

yea I see what's up
Like I said.. just lurking lol maybe if i'm lucky i'll run into another GB i can't afford

 

Blasphemy! Tell King they should update my extended travels to extended travels with click adjusters due to this.


I'm just kidding. It's all good. It was a massive group buy, so I expected a longer wait. I'm still deployed anyway, so the wait isn't much of an issue for me. They'll get there eventually. Can't wait to open that box though.

 

Tracking info received yesterday, delivery scheduled for today..

 

Got a bit too hopefull, got everything but my coil overs. All looking good so far. Back to waiting.

 

For all of you who daily drive or are meticulous about your parts... You might want to look into mavcoating your components after install.

 

Just arrived today. Guessing both fronts are in the box?

 

Yes... Or you could open it and find out.

 

or send it to me so I can install before overland expo...

 

I would do both of those if I wasn't out of the country. Photo was sent to me. Looking forward to install when I get home.

 

Ya they're packed in there like sardines, very intricately molded foam.

 

Afternoon guys,
new week, new story from king. they are saying next week now.
sorry guys.. if any one wants to cancel, send me a PM.. unfortunately I am at the mercy of king.
micah

 

Can they offer free installation for this inconvenience?

 

PM'ed you @Downsouth Motorsports

 

This how I should have received them.
Install my rears today, king QA dept missed this, so I had to run a 1/2"x 20 die because the nut could not thread on.

 

After
Before
(Thanks OP) Now waiting on the fronts to come in...Hopefully soon.

 

Is this for the top of the rear shock mount?
Mine came in mint.

 

Yep the top. At first I thought they sent me the wrong nut, so I broke out my thread pitch gage and found out the threads were not finished. The guy assembling my part prolly thought he was done and sent it to shipping. I reported this issue to king and asked them to send me a trucker hat lol

 

How many turns does it take to raise my coilovers 1"? I recall 5 but wanted to confirm before installing. Also, do the coilovers already account for the Taco lean, or do I need to do a couple more turns on the drivers side?
