King Suspension - Sagging Rear End

I recently purchased a 2004

$151 4-door QAA is Compatible with 2016-2020 Toyota Tacoma 6 Piece Stainless Body Molding Insert Trim Kit, 1.5" Width MI16172

4-door TRD Tacoma. The previous owner installed King coil-overs on the front and King reservoir shocks on the rear. The rear leaf springs are stock, and they are sagging quite a bit. I have a few questions regarding this setup:

1. Does anyone have information on the King components? (see attached pictures)
2. Do these components add any lift?
3. Are the coil-overs adjustable?
4. Should I simply install new stock leaf springs on the back to correct the sagging rear?
5. Eventually I would like to fit 33" tires on this truck - will these components work? What else will I need?

Normally I would just buy a kit to provide the necessary lift, but I'm kind of jumping in half-way with this truck. Any input would be greatly appreciated!

 

Kings are top of the line, some of the best coilovers out there.

They are adjustable.

To fix your saggy booty, replace your leaf pack

 

might need to switch out the coils up front.

 

To fix sagging rear leafs??

OP, any coilover that has a threaded body will be adjustable fyi...

 

So I was researching leaf springs and came across wheelersoffroad.com. They offer several version of shocks and springs that match my vehicle. From what I read, the rear shocks will work with a stock lift or a 1.5" lift. No information was given about what the coil-overs are capable of, other than that they are adjustable, as bry838 said.

So here is where I'm at now:

1. Does anyone know where to find the model numbers on these components?
2. How much lift can I get out of the front coil-overs? What are their limits?

 

You can look into dakar leaf packs they are very popular here. The Wheeler packs are also another popular choice. Im happy with my dakars though. Great springs.

 

I have the wheelers 4 pack and I'm not a fan...
the driver side is stiffer than the passenger to make up for "taco lean".
in turns the passenger side will sag a ton more and it makes me upset...
The whole truck feels uneven and I have adjustable fox 2.0s up front with fox 2.0 in the rear.
Yes I am a 2.7l prerunner so that's a big factor why the wheelers don't feel right to me.

 

Most coilovers are 2.5" and the extended travel ones give you 3" but you need new uca's with the 3" ones...

Some good info in this recent thread - basically yes, you can run 33s, but you'll be limited with lifting the rear unless you move those shocks.

 

You have 25001-151s in front, and likely 25001-153s in the rear. The rears are OEM replacements. They offer you no lift, that is where a new leaf pack comes into play. The fronts can be adjusted to about 3", but you should stay at 2.5" or lower without an aftermarket UCA. You should not exceed 2" lift in the rear with the 25001-153's, per my conversation with a King Rep. 1.75" was recommended if lifting in the rear. Therefore, do a dakar leaf pack remove 3rd leaf spring. Set the front at probably 2" lift for a level truck, but start with the rear and adjust the front accordingly. And the beauty of these shocks: fully rebuildable.

 

Rebuild the shocks and get boots on the rears. Dakar rear springs are your best bet.

 

Thanks, everyone! This is really useful information. I found a receipt that says I have the King 25001-151 coilovers in front and the 25001-153 shocks in the back. Since getting the Dakar leaf springs will require me to remove a leaf or get new shocks, I'm not sure if I'll go that route yet. I'm going to have to think about it a while and do some more research.

 

@ayoung if you planned to install leafs yourself, removing a leaf shouldn't deter you. Did you end up deciding?

 

I found a build I like that uses a custom leaf pack from Deaver. It provides 2" of lift, and it allows for 255/85R16 (33.4") tires with some fender modifications and regearing.

I'm going to try calling the company soon to see if they still make that custom set and to find out how much they cost.
