    Worked on my rear diff skid some today. Now the truck is getting an alignment. I tried to crank up my coilovers before I went in and got half a turn before the dumb king "spanner wrench" broke.

    That sucks about the wrench.. I wonder if they will send you a free replacement ?:eek:

    Thanks. I feel the same about your truck haha. Just watched your flexin video. Lookin good bro.
    Well unfortunately king takes a while to assemble the shocks. I just emailed Ben @ filthy motorsports (main king distributer) He said they would ship out in 2 weeks when i ordered them. But its going to take an extra week or so. Oh well. Apparently they are built to order. I plan on getting the relocation done when i get those.

    nice! very clean install.. especially for a lunch break!

    I'm not even going to ask. I don't want another one. It's just a T-handle rod with the tip necked down to fit in the collar. What a waste of $20. I thought I was buying the actual king spanner wrench, but I guess they switched to this new tool.

    I put on my big boy underwear and started to weld my sliders onto the truck. Welds look like crap though and posted the question on the welding subforum.

    Got the alignment done. It's better than it was. The guy couldn't get 3 degrees without changing the setting on the upper ball joint, so he didn't do it. It would have cost more than the $60 he quoted he said. I wouldn't have cared. Also some goods came in for future projects.

    wow that's some beefy shackles. But it's looks like a very strong design. Might keep this design for future projects. Are they. 12" never mind I just saw that you said they are 12" on the LT BS page.
