    I'm glad to hear you're content with your setup! Although I am staying away from blocks as previously mentioned.

    37" all around from the lower fender? How did you get those measurements?

    Taco lean can be accommodated with just about any lift being done, just a matter of how a person wants to tackle it.

    Ya, I was concerned too about the block, from reading this Forum, but I wouldn't go higher. I could have gotten a 1 1/2" block for cheaper. I got 37" up front with the Bilsteins, and 36" in the rear before the 1" blocks. I also have 265/75/16 Duractracs that gave me somewhere between 1/2" or 1" lift. Unfortunately I didn't measure before I upsized the tires.

    When these awesome Duratracs wear out, I will buy 17" rims, and get 255/75/17 pizza cutter Duratracs. Unfortunately they do not make a bigger 16" pizza cutter Duratrac, at this time.

    The Kings that you are looking at is currently backordered. I ordered them last week and Accutune said have been out since January but are expecting a large shipment soon. Bad news is on the "King's Suspension" thread is that people have been waiting since December for their kits to come in.

    I got all my stuff from Headstrong. But that was a few years ago. Great service. My buddy did just order a OME kit from them this week. Sounds like they had everything in stock and it shipped the next day.

    This is what worries me. The large inbound shipments are mostly if not all already claimed and will be shipped to those who've been waiting for the orders. I am looking to move next year between the 1st and 2nd quarter of 2022. Those wait times with my luck will definitely deliver to a wrong address. I might be better off waiting to pull the trigger until I'm re-located up in WA..

    I have messaged Headstrong and they informed me that they did not have what I was looking for [currently], and instead recommended a 2" OME kit, which is not what I'm looking for.

    Makes sense to wait now that you say you may be moving in the near future. Plus with the new delta variant of covid and then the holidays around the corner I'm sure it'll be a pretty long wait time. I would keep checking FB marketplace or even the "for sale" section of Tacoma world if you don't mind buying used, King's have a great resell value and last forever. At least it gives you time really think about what kind of lift you want so you can do it right the first time. Don't be like me back in 2017 I bought King's for my Tacoma but not the extended travel version, so here I am in 2021 waiting on what now could be forever for a set of extended travel.
