King Shocks thread

[FULLTHROTTLERICK]

Foutz has delivered theirs but requires tabs welded. Kibbe hasn’t delivered any yet that I’ve seen. Evil is the only one that has an actual installed kit including their j arm setup. Evil makes one of the most capable setups right now. Only rival is Robby woods.

Are you talking about Evil's long arm kit? I really like the idea of a long travel kit but i think any extra width and i'd 100% unable to do any jeep BOH trails which i do enjoy.

Is Evil still making kits? I just tried searching and they don't show them on their website anymore (not sure if they are gone or just overhauling the site).

Ohhh that makes sense. Stock width with a bump would be perfect. Evils kit is the j arm long travel which is a lot wider haha.

I’d be interested in stock width too.

You live in Florida sir. Jax roads are bad, but not that bad to need a long travel Rex

Someone else on the forum is getting their kit plus some secret stuff. This person also hammers their truck so there will be footage once it is complete.

That's a bummer you haven't been happy. I do know the Kibbe ones are big. The kings were getting hit by the factory steering too and the Kibbe ones are massive.

I machined new misalignment spacers and offset the king shock a 1/4 of an inch back so its closer to the cv but will never hit. looks like I still need to add just a hair to my steering stop to be safe but sitting on flat ground i no longer hit going lock 2 lock on the steering.

 

[Dudebro]

That's a great idea! I'll be doing the same for mine when Kings come.

on the trailing arms, they weigh a lot less then the factory arms. probably shed 70-80lbs replacing those 4 while increasing strength. important for builds that are quickly approaching payload imo.
