    Hey there! So I just picked up a King 3" life for an FJ cruise, I got it mainly to get the UCA and Front coilover since that is a direct bolt on to a 2nd gen tacoma, the only difference is the mounting resorvoir bracket, however I looked up the spec on the rear shock and it is slighly different. Here are the specs

    Tacoma:

    OEM Performance Rear Shocks w/Remote Reservoir
    • Extended Length: 24.290 Inch
    • Collapsed Length: 15.830 Inch
    • Travel Length: 8.46 Inch
    • Max Tire Size 32 inches
    FJ:

    • OEM Performance Series Rear Shocks w/Remote Reservoir
    • Extended Length: 25.290 Inch
    • Collapsed Length: 15.580 Inch
    • Travel Length: 9.71 Inch
    • Max Tire Size 33 inches
    My question is since they still have the same mounting points and would it throw off the ride quality since the FJ shock has more travel or should I just sell it and get a taco pair of king shock (What I am planning on doing) Any input will help, thanks.
