King shocks lead time 30 weeks?

Wheelers is super legit. They give you free shipping, no Tax! and 5% off here and there with their promo codes. Also they seem to have the most in stock items that ship right from central CA (closer to me). All good guys...

 

I ordered mine on 11/29/21 and the dealer doesn't even have an ETA. I ordered from liftkits4less, I have emailed them several times regarding my concerns and I haven't received an ETA yet. So I guess I'm just going to forget about them and get a surprise delivery whenever they arrive. I ordered the 3.0 king fronts.

 

My ADS Shocks took 5 weeks for fronts and 7-8 weeks for rear shocks. Of course, that was about six months ago.

 

Just heard from the vendor today that due to backorder the new estimated date is June 30th 2022 for my order that was in Aug. That is not a promising date either. I canceled my order sadly.

 

Be persistent. Do an internet search. They may have what you want in stock. Headstrong took ~2-3 weeks from order cyber Monday to arrival. Camburg was also fast.

 

Just chiming in again about lead times again. If that retailer does not have them on the shelf, or already has them on order you will be waiting upwards of 11 months from the day they order them.

Please shoot us a DM if you would like to know what our lead times are like. Please also provide part numbers. (Fox 2.5 DSC shocks are currently in stock)

 

Did you buy your deavers from them directly?

 

A drop shipper that rhymes with TacomaFeast. They shipped directly from Deaver. If they would have answered their phones, I would have gone direct.

 

I ordered my Deaver Stage 1 directly from them in mid-July, and they showed up around mid-October. They were great to work with, promptly answered my e-mails and I was able to talk to Scott directly on a couple of occasions. YMMV.

FWIW I also had the same experience with Tyler at ADS; put my order in mid-July, coilovers took about 8 weeks and smoothies about 12 weeks. Pretty decent lead times given the current market and they carry Dirty King UCAs which I also included in my order and arrived with the coilovers.

 

It took almost a year to get my Kings in for the GX. I wanted ADS again (I have them on my Taco) but their prices went up and Kings are way cheaper compared to ADS nowadays. If I knew it was going to take almost a year I would’ve just spent the extra money on ADS and probably got them faster.

 

From my call with Deaver a month or so back, Stage I and III are readily available to ship, while they couldn't give me an estimate for Stage II and custom packs. I ordered Stage III through Wheelers (on sale) and they showed up 2-3 days later (shipped by Deaver).

 

Switch to Fox's, Accutune frequently has them in stock. Got some 2.5 14s in like 4 days the other week

 

Hey guys,
We have the King extended travel with and without the adjusters on the shelf and ready to ship!
Also got the rear kings with and without the adjusters as well for the 05+ Tacoma's.
