    Whats up everyone? I've been lurking on this site for a while now.I finally bought a Tundra after 20 years waiting. Im piecing together my setup.I already bought a Pro comp 6", Fuel Mavericks 18x9, Rbp MT II 35x12.5,and just ordered Kings 2.5 front coilovers.Im gonna order rear kings when I get the cash.Nothing is installed yet its all in my living room (where I can stare at it.)Im planning on getting lift and front coilovers installed before the rear.Does anyone think there's a problem with that? What else should I do to the rear besides the kings shocks? I want a smooth ride.Any advice would be appreciated.

    Congrats on the new truck! Are the kings made for the 6 inch lift or are you buying kings to put a spacer lift on it? You will need to have the rear kings large enough to take the extra 4-5 inch lift your gonna put in the rear. The stock-3inch regular kings won't work without bottoming out. Coachbuilder makes a shackle kit for the rear that gives some extra lift that helps ride quality. But can only get an extra 1.75 inches out of it I think

    Yes the kings are for my lift. Will replace spacers up front. So if coach builder shackles can only get a extra 1.75” then those won’t work to replace block? So I’m reading about leaf springs. Is that the way to go to replace rear block and get better ride?

    Sorry no updates. Kings aren’t gonna be shipped until September. I got till then to save some cash and figure out what I’m gonna do with rear. I’ve been researching rear leaf springs. Sounds like that might be the way to go.
