KING 3.0 coilovers

Or just in this thread?

 

Where did you order them from? Was it the Tundra kit or did you get something custom?

 

Yeah more info on this would be nice!

 

Cool, so for the rear bypass you ordered, is that the one where you have to change the shock mount or is it the one that was on kings FB page where it was a bypass that fit in the rear stock shock mount?

 

5k for front and rear at dealer pricing? Yikes

 

It seems way more reasonable than what I had imagined when I first heard about them.

 

I kindly disagree. I doubt the price difference is worth it from the 2.5 and that is dealer cost

 

Good point... and just an FY that price was for front and rear.

 

Welcome, BTW. I must've missed your intro. Congrats on the new setup, that'll be BA.

 

I’ll post pics when they get to our shop, hopefully next week some time.

 

That is not a bad price at all!! Go look up the Icon 3.0 setup MSRP and you'll see lol. (I got mine on a black friday special bitcheeeeeess!!! lol)

I came from the Pro suspension and in my experience, and the way I drive and use the truck I would do again. The truck feels more stable, barrels over obstacles when I Ricky Bobby it, and just feels more firm but softer on the roads (if that makes any sense). Shit, my wife even made a comment about how it was less "bumpy" on the road. I'm not comparing my Icons to the Kings in anyway since they are different types of shocks and my rear setup is different with the RXT springs and shocks, but these would be a huge upgrade from 2.5s. But again it's all about what you do with your truck and what you want to get out of it. If you're a street queen and mall crawler then yeah you probably wouldn't notice a huge difference besides the BA 3.0s in the wheel well.

@TRON replaced his Pro setup with ADS 3.0s up front and he would give you a similar story. You wanna talk beast mode, then ask @KevinK lol

 

price is about what 3.0 cost. compare with ADS or ICON.
now, do you need them is the question ? 2.5 are perfectly capable 95% of the time...but then you get those 5%..and that's where it shines ..lol

 

@JH6124 post a build thread..I wanna see a gen 2 running those 3.0

 

I guess I misunderstood. I thought the 5k was dealer cost

 

They look so amazing! I can’t wait!!!!

 

Let us know if/when thy arrive. This’ll be a first, and I’m anxious to see how it works out.

 

Kevink I will def post as soon as they arrive. I’m so anxious, but they will have to sit in the box until after the mint 400 if they come before then.

 

Any details on the internals of the King? Details on bumps zones and such as Icon posts.

 

looks like ive finally been out king'd cant wait to see this

 

14 burrito I have no idea, I can ask as soon as they come if you’d like.

 

100% race application ?

 

With the Icon 3.0 and ADS 3.0, I guess King realized they need to keep up with the market.
Can't wait to see....

 

Can't wait to seem them on trucks.

 

Yes they will “work” I.e. u can use them but you’re losing the extended travel that deavers give u. Deaver spec’d shocks like the ads triple bypasses are longer than stock length shocks to get every bit of travel in the stock location

 

Anxiously awaiting the package from MCM every day. I feel like a kid at Christmas.

 

Wait it says “ the rear does require deavers”.... Bret from king said the under bed bypasses are for stock leaf pack. I’m gonna stick with what the owner at king says and go with that. Patiently waiting my package.

 

Am I late to the party or has anyone else seen this kit? You can add a front bypasses to stock LCAs I’ve seen it done but I’ve never seen a kit that looks pretty easy to install.
