2017 TRD DCSB, KING 3.0, CBI.

Hopefully those Kings are sweet. Plan on getting some myself. Love the black accents with the lights btw. I would like to do something like that with mine but I cant copy. Gotta come up with something different. I don't know why I'm so anal about doing everything different.

 

Some updated pics. King 3.0s on, Icon Billet delta joint, Nitto Ridge Grapplers 285

 

Nice! Clean build man, this is very similar to what I'm shooting for on my cement OR.

I'm currently dating a girl from Kauai right now too so it makes it all even better.

 

the lighting in these pictures make it look Cement! Great build btw. Family is from Kauai, Hanapepe/Waimea area so I spot polihale a mile away

 

update, ordered eibach 16" 650 coils to fix the rake, ill probably add another leave to the icon rxt to bring the back up as well, then CBI front and rear bumpers after

 

why not 14” or do the 3.0’s use longer springs?

 

they use 15x550s

 

Ah cool. Looking good

 

Did some light wheeling today. Crazy to see the amount of droop these Kings give.

 

Peacock Flats



This was the first time I had a chance to really test the Nitto RGs. I have to say I was really really impressed with them. It was reasonably muddy, I did not air down, but the truck soldiered along with few if any slip ups. Then right back on the road to a nice quite ride. These tires are amazing.

 

Had the stock 550x15 replaced with 650x16 mostly to correct the ridiculous 1.5” or rake. After the install I think the front is maybe 1” higher than the rear. The springs feel pretty stiff and need some settling for sure. Will take some pics later.

 

What have you noticed between the kings and icons?? As like everyone I am leaning towards kings but stuck in the middle!

 

I think the King shocks seem to be softer. The icons felt really jarring over certain bumps. The ride did get a little stiffer with the new springs on so we’ll see how it goes.

 

Did the running4tacos raptor lights. This was a bitch to do. Filing down the grill was no fun. They have you tap the fuse for the driver headlight. This isn’t ideal because they only come on with the headlights. Going to figure out something else to tap later.




On a side note. Still waiting for the CBI T3, CBI HC rear bumper. Ordered on Dec 4, they said looking at late January/February.

 

Truck is looking good

 

Another mountain run.

 

Sweet build.
When you removed the overload, what did you do with the brake line guide?
Mine is attached to the overload.
Thanks in advance.

 

Love, love you truck. How far do the 285/70s stick out past your flares with SCSs?

I've been looking at a shock relocation set up that requires wheel spacers and I'm trying to get an idea for how past the flares my tires would end up.

 

Two questions...

1.) Has anyone towed with the Kings?
2.) Any good places around Philly for an install?

 

The bracket was taken off and attached to the new leaf pack.
