3rd Gen Owners with King Coilovers

I’m not 100% sure but I’m guessing 2” or more lift in the back. Also depends on what travel you have in the rear. Good way to test it is lift the rear up off the ground with a jack and see how much slack there is. I have the 3 AAL from Icon.

 

What setting are you running the RXT on? Looks like you got a healthy lift from the whole setup

 

@rdpoe With the RXT im running Option 2. I took out the original 3rd leaf and switched it with a thicker leaf that came with the package.

Thanks for the feedback man!

 

Anyone selling their 14"600s? Shipped to 79936. Thanks!

 

Just hit you up

 

Does this look as if the collar jumped a thread?(crossthreaded)

 

Looks fine

 

@GF8er
I was asking because when i was preloading it a couple of turns for some reason it started to get very hard to turn and very tight.
But as long as it didnt jump a thread

 

also just hopping in here to check it out. Currently running 5100/5160's 888's and jba uppers and dakars in the rear. had some settling and looking to eventually replace everything with kings. thanks for the reading material fellas.

 

As long as you don't loosen the bolt more than one full turn you shouldn't have a problem. Also as preload increases the force needed to turn the preload collar increases. If you spray the threads down with wd40 or something similar it will help.

 

Suggestions on how many threads should be showing. Going to be running 285/70/17 and have the rxt pack on rear

 

What is everyone's thoughts about the compression adjusters? I figure it'd be good to have, but trying to be realistic with how much adjusting I'd be doing. Anyone get the adjusters but maybe wouldn't if they had to do it again? How's the ride on/ off road without? My truck is my daily and sees pavement the majority of the time, but when I wheel it is tight trails, not too technical, but slow moving.. Thanks for the input! Lots of good information in this thread

 

Getting all this installed tomorrow -- I can't wait!

 

Mmm I love Kings.
Ive read bypasses make funky noises due to the valving. Can anyone confirm?

 

Good day coming.

 

I just hope I can sleep tonight!

 

I have the adjusters and honestly I can’t tell much of difference between the lowest setting and the highest setting.

I’ve been running them on three clicks on and off-road.

 

Can’t confirm, not in that next level shit yet.

 

To me the biggest difference is when I load up the bed, I'm able to tighten up the rear shocks to eliminate most of the sway, so it doesn't feel like driving a boat on the highway.
During slow rock crawling tightening will help reduce some soft bounce while going over obstacles.

That's the best I can explain how that works for me. Is it worth extra 500-600??

 

Just a little chatter and clicks....rarely on asphalt. Offroad -w/quick cycling piston velocity-you'll notice your zones talking to you.
