    Anybody has the part # for the extended rear Kings?
    I just order a set from DSMS, I asked for extended all around but looking at the invoice, the rear I'm getting is OEM replacement part # 25001-121

    Look through the thread. The way they're extended (spec for Dakar as they call it) is by a longer bottom rod end. Part number is in here for the rod end.

    Hey TW,

    So here's my mods for anyone interested

    Kings 2.5 in front with tc upper control arms

    The rear was the fun part

    - king 2.0 extended travel shocks 12 inches of play, went this route because of the relocation kit so I didn't do the matching 2.5 resi in the rear . The 2.0 had better droop applications...... I think? Lmfao

    -bamf shock relocation kit
    -timbren bump stops
    -extended brake lines
    -shackle flip - welded in
    -ubolt flip


    Those are the 1.25 spidertrax wheel spacers btw

    How much lift are you getting with your coils? I feel like that is quite a bit for kings. I have about 2.5 inches of lift over stock on my set up, but I have half the threads showing on my drivers side.
