Which Kings to buy for a 3" lift in the front?

10-4

 

what wrong with a little extra rake?

 

Nothing. But my 888s shouldn't be sagging down to barely a 2" lift after 6 months. Just trying o fix a problem

 

For the best all around ride, have them tuned at time of purchase. Later down the road you can bump up the spring rates when you add bumpers etc. We can certainly help with that, have the 25001-119-EXT in stock too

 

Thanks for the info!
I'm trying to price out shipping options for me right now because shipping to Hawaii is outrageous.

 

Ouch, I can imagine. If you would like a quote from us, just let me know

 

The problem is people think coils that go well on the 2nd gen equally go well on the 3rd gen. It is truly surprising how inaccurate this is and is a common thought.



Coil weight has nothing to do with stiffness for the most part unless you are putting a huge gap in coil weight. Coil weight is designed for supporting the weight of the truck. With the 3rd gen being 300lbs heavier in the front and extending farther from the fulcrum (wheel and shocks), that additional weight causes sag quick with the wrong coil.

After talking to guys that have done a TON of R&D over at ADS, they have said that these trucks stand correctly with a 700# coil (this has nothing to do with ADS shocks, just the coil). It also makes sense why the stock TRD OR is a 700# coil.

The 2888 OME coils are a 590# coil. Ideal for a 2nd gen if not over-preloaded like they come on the OME kits.

Valving is what makes a stiff ride, not the coil (again, unless you have a huge weight gap). A common topic of misinformation
