    Just want to start a thread for King 2.5 front and OME medium leafs. Just bought and waiting for shipment. Any mods I need to be worried about. Or extra parts I’ll need to buy. Don’t want to start and end up stuck. Thanks

    Stock shocks in the back. Yeah once a month or once every 2. Just getting into the off road game!

    Probably would be a good idea to replace them with shocks that are rated to run a 2-3" leaf. Otherwise you will have a very bouncy rear as the stock shocks will be fully extended and will be internally limiting travel.

    If cost is a factor, some 5100 in the rear will be sufficient until you can get matching Kings in the rear.

    Also with the varying stock valving and the king valving, your truck handling will be... Interesting to say the least

    I’m planning on getting some for the back. Gotta save! Hopefully it won’t be a horrible ride. I did go with the medium OMEs
