Truck update. Who doesn't like king shocks

to be honest no more than 3-4k pounds towing a 23 foot boat & RZR. loading a stand up jetski & Dirtbike in the truck bed. My old man bought a new body duramax SLT in 07 it has 78k miles on it now lol..... so if i ever need to worry about weight i go to the dmax. i came from my 1500 to this for a reason i just needed something with a bed that road and got the gas mileage of a car and was not at all down to test that new diesel colorado in its first year.

 

Just get Dakars and be done lol

 

thats what youre running? btw curious what is your build anyway and how do you like it?

 

I run Maxtrac 4" spindles and Dakar leaf packs.

Going to add some fancy coilovers later this year.

Extremely happy with my lift/stance

I also have 2016 TRD OR shocks and coils that gave me an extra inch up front for a total of 5" front and 3" rear lift

 

How noticeable were the dakars? i am aiming to keep it stock height or wider and lower if thats even possible. im 5 foot 7 makes it hard to jump up trucks when youre loading your dirtbike lol..

 

I hear that!!!

They gave me the full 3"

I really haul loads that often really.

But I feel like they made my truck 'better'

They ride nice and flex even better.

 

But with all this said and done i do have one issue with my rear end that i want resolved and i dont have an answer for. i feel like those 2.5 kings i addded gave me alot more travel but it does feel like the stock bump shocks are almost to tall in the rear not letting the shock get into full stroke any cheap fixes on that? really dont want to do a damn hydraulic bump on a daily driver thats not even long traveled lol

 

yeah different strokes for different folks. if i went with your style build that would be my answer but this whole thread i probably should have mentioned why i wanted to keep it lower and all these other factors people probably would have been less aggravated..... MY BAD <3

 

Stock bumps suck lmao.

I've got a Ubolt flip kit and timbrens. They are amazing

I also have Timbren Bumps up front

Huge improvement there also

 

brooooooooooooo tag a link if you got one. i might just call you jesus christ because you quite possibly might be my savior.

 

This should have been your first post in that shackle thread instead of what you originally wrote. Context, details and explanations go a long way for credibility, especially when relaying information from others.

 

Yeah i know lol i just told @chadpride that. but im glad we can all go back to honest opinions and helping each other. thanks for understanding bud. i totally blew it in the beginning of the feed.

 

This thread is like a soap opera... lol.

 

His parents probably bought his truck for him too...

 

hey man i just wanted to ideas on a smoother ass and opinions on what i was told, lol. i think the show has came to an end sadly. except the part when i still need to find some bold on bump stop replacements that allow my kings to use its full stroke it feels like it hits bump right before 3/4 of compressing.

 

no sir and that comment i wrote was wrong, and out of line.

 

youll love the foxes!! I have had for a few k miles now and am a VERY happy customer!

 

Ah, hell no. I'm not touchin' this one.....

 

Butt inganeer

 

Gotcha, I understand. And it's all good. I figured it was easier to lay out some stuff rather than just shout
