    Just read through your build thread too, I had no idea toyota still replaces bad frames, I don't think mine is bad enough to be replaced (yet) but seeing a fresh frame on a first gen brought a huge smile to my face, great lookin truck

    Not all that cool, but I painted the bolts on my SR8s today. Looks much better (IMO) than the silver bolts.

    If you got the standard Kings then you can use your stock UCAs but if you got the extended travel, then you must get a uniball style or equivalent UCA

    Pretty sure they're standar. They are pretty close to my CVs though. I'll take. A picture when I get home

    Thanks man! They didn't look terrible in silver, but with the truck being red and the wheels being grey it just looked busy:

    Also, it appears the only pictures I take of my truck are of the passenger front wheel...:rofl:

    The Stock UCA should be fine. You can improve caster angles with a different UCA but it shouldn't be necessary with the Kings you have.

    While caster numbers is concern, the bigger concern is that if they are extended travel, they can potentially droop more than the stock upper ball joint will allow.

    You can't tell by looking at them whether they are extended travel or not. The only difference is an internal bump stop that is either there or it's not.

    So if it has the internal bump it's extended travel?

    No, on extended travel version, the stop is not present, which allow the shock to extend further.
    I love them. They look great on tour truck

    So if you run the extended travel without internal bump.. you would need to run a air bump or some sort of aftermarket bump right?
