SOLD Kings 700# springs

I bought these from someone here without researching. They won't work for me. Previous owner had only installed long enough to realize the same. I never installed. They have one little ding. Kings14" 700# springs. 3" diameter for 2.5" shocks. Asking $100. Located in Bay Area, CA. Ship on your dime.


Edit: After a few days, and with some great advice from other TW members, I am going to give these a shot. Thanks for the help and sorry for anyone looking at these.

Edit: (10/2019): Never installed, selling after all.

 

What did. are they?

 

3" for 2.5" shocks. Will edit, thanks for asking.

 

Sorry to thread jack, but I just wanted those viewing to know that if your intent is to replace the spring on you 2.5" coil over, the correct Part # should be King3.14.700J18 which are what I have on my 2.5" C/O's.

These are H18's which I tried to google, but couldn't determine the difference.

 

would this work for FOX 2.5?

 

I believe so. They only reason they don't work for me is I am running Bilstein 6112. I think they will work on any higher end shock. Fox, Kings, Icon, etc. Don't quote me.

 

What did the previous owner try to put them on?

 

Kings. He didn't like the stiffness with 700# though.

 

I may be interested. I have some 700's now but a bit weathered.

 

Why won't they work on the 6112s???

This is one of the threads I read through that gave me enough doubt not to install them.

 

To run 14" springs on the 6112s you have to stay at the bottom notch or the 2nd notch you shouldn't really go any higher than that for the preload or you will get into coil bind. Not to thread jack but there are tons of guys with 6112s running 14" 700# springs from many different manufacturers. I had to go over the same thing with a guy a little bit ago because he couldn't get them to go when they were set at the top notch.

 

Honestly not sure the H vs J is much. My 700's have a K. Looking up on their site they only list one part number.
SPR3-14-700 3 x 14 x 700lb Coils

 

They have another part number that are 14”x700 that has 11 coils. Tried these and they absolutely did not work.

The ones the OP is selling work great on these trucks though

 

ah interesting I was not seeing that on the King site. They only listed one 14x700 coil.

 

The last 3 letter number almost seem like a version or something. My other buddies on his truck are G17 mine are K13 and these are H18

 

I'm not sure if I was reading too fast but did we determine if these will go on the King 2.5 OEM coilover kit for the Tacomas?

 

They will

 

I may just have to try them out now... If they don't sell over the weekend.

 

maybe like a date stamp? (letter=month made, 2 #'s after=year ) I gotta go look at my 700's.
