    Which coilovers do you have? I have a cast spanner wrench, but it seems to only fit Icons. The Fox's and the King's use the same spanner size from what I've seen reported.

    AT/MT/RT? Or?

    The tread pattern on most of their lineup seem like they'd be good either way. Are they only available in LR-E?

    The XT seems a bit aggressive for the majority of highway miles I put on my truck typically.

    I have kings. Thanks for the info.

    Awesome. That looks like it could do the job. I’m over in maple valley but work in Renton. That curved tip make it much easier to do?

    Yup, this tool makes it possible to adjust these on the truck. Myself and other TW members have used it multiple times now. In my opinion, the straight tool that comes with the king is only useful when the coilovers are off the truck.
    I’ll be around the fairwood Safeway/LA fitness from around 6pm to 6:45pm tomorrow or PM to grab it from my house

    Yeah. Msgs350 let me borrow his curved thandle. I’m still having issues with the passenger side for clearance to use the tool. The res line still gets in the way

    Let me know if you need help, it does require some finessing with that handle. You may need to turn it in small increments and try different angles with the curved tip.

    I might have to take you up on that. I tried using it and another small Allen in the small hole, but it started to bend the small hole. So I kind of left it at that

    Can you post a pic of the spanner wrench? @Rikolas has King with remote reservoirs and I can't picture how a spanner wrench would fit in that spot while on the truck.
