    So I need to order coil overs soon and I've been looking around and found some answers but for different trucks/weights, but was seeing if I could see what some of your are running for valving up front on 2nd gen tacomas then I could go from there and adjust as needed.

    Edit: I have coilovers now just need a better valving, I have no idea whats in them.
    Running 8" coilovers with 16" 600lb spring

    What shocks? I know king and icon or might have been Fox have weird ass valving labels.
    What gear are you running? Plate bumpers? Are you a 1st or second gen?
    What do you use the truck for? Lost and lots of questions to answer a simple valving setup man

    Sorry just saw you're second.
    I'll find out what valving on the front I have soon but it's "stock" from the king factory. 99% sure it's a flutter stack on compression up front. I've got 700 lb rate springs with a heavy plate bumper too.

    For the rear kings it's a flat 0.12 stack on compression in place of the flutter stack from factory and the rebound is "stock" from factory. It handles stiffer on road but going fast over rough stuff off road feels like a caddy man

    Just a tube bumper up front, its mainly my winter vehicle/offroad beater now. My current valving and spring rate is kinda shitty, lots of bouncing on the freeway when hitting the overpass.
