    ya i think they do nice work.. they are kinda local to me and i follow their work on instagram and they build a lot of awesome builds.. just make sure that kit is for a tacoma if its going on the one in your profile pic.. just double check.. kinda looks like their tundra kit.. the tacoma kit on their instagram looks a lil different.. but i could be wrong.. this is what i see on their IG for a tacoma IMG_3770[1].jpg

    Btf makes a good kit, I'm installing a btf kit on a Nissan frontier at the shop. Looks good.

    ok so i got another stupid idea. since i have 12" triples right now im planning on going f67s and 18s" instead of buying new shocks and waiting and hoping to sell used ones. im thinking of just buying 18" triple cylinders and 18" shafts then just swapping everything from my 12s to the new 18s. aside from shafts and new cylinders what else would i need? emailed king and they said 1k with 15" reservoirs ready to go. thoughts, concerns, shit talking?

    It wouldn't be worth it, too much money for the parts plus it's a pain in the ass to remove the body from the top cap, sometimes you end up damaging the shocks doing it
