    Just purchased a Camburg LT kit and am looking for some king 2.5x8" coilovers. Would I be better off buying new or a used set in good condition? Anyone have any bad experience from buying used coilovers?

    Just to let you know, dont know if you've already run into the King group buy but i bet you can get the new shocks you need for the same price as buying used if you jumped in on the group buy too. https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/king-shocks-group-buy-start-2-21-end-3-10-17.474812/

    Anytime, I'm getting some 2.5 x 8in as well for my DK LT kit and they came out to a great price. Did you get the Camburg kit used or buy it new?

    Yeah I'm fairly new to TW and thought of doing a build thread. I already have my rear end done with a dmz spring under kit and a bolt in bedcage but I wanna sell that and design a different one.
