    Cool man, I will have to check it out. From what I understood, I thought that the limiting factor on the rear leaf from the factory is that it wouldn't be wide enough between the hangers to house a big enough spring to cycle 16 inches worth of travel without some sort of extension in the hangers. If that is the case, might have to look into this kit.

    @Coot83 Your welcome. I'm still on the fence if I'm gonna keep it bolt on or minor fab rear setup. I still got to take my Taco in for rear diff recall, makes me more hesitant.

    What rear do you currently have? I have been eyeballing the DMZ kit cause of how good I hear it cycles, but I want a full LT rear end. Are you considering the Baja kits route? If so, would you relocate your shocks?

    All stock suspension, unmolested 3rd gen now. My previous was a 2nd with only Icon 2.5 at corners with Icon 3 Leaf-ALL. Want to go a little farther then I previously had. Yes would like more travel, a "LT" rear but mild side. Nothing too extreme.

    If you want mild then this is def a good option. Not much fab work and it isn't critical to go through the bed.

    So an employee from a TW Vendor " told " on us to King that I was doing a discount on shocks and they can't compete with us.

    He PM'd me directly for a quote and supposedly sent that to King.

    I have not heard anything from King yet because it is technically not advertised but come on...really??

    Gosh! That's not cool of them.

    Kudos to JT@Bajakits for keeping your cool and not dropping names on this vendor. Good character on your part!

    Apparently you aren't the only one, that king "group buy" the vendor in there apparently got reported to King as well for going below map pricing at least that's what he said.. Seems someone is being salty from one of the suspension companies that sells on here.

    "Snitches get stitches"

    Are you doing any deals on Kings beside the LT? In the market for coilovers and shocks.

    I saw that Group buy too.

    The funniest thing is that i'm not advertising the price.

    We can sell the shocks at whatever price we want but we just can not advertise it.

    I haven't heard from King yet but some one told me that our name was mentioned.

    We will see!

    As for just getting some shocks, PM me and i'll get you set up.

    Thanks
