KING 3.0 coilovers

It also has no issue towing with the 3.0s.

 

solid !

 

Where’s your Resi? Mine attached to the shock so I couldn’t turn it.


Edit: I have zero issues since I’ve got new wheels and don’t need spacers. It was only with stock rims.

 

@GiantsFanDan kings are remote resis and not piggybacks

 

I see. Great setup you got!

 

@GiantsFanDan thank you, I love it!

 

Thanks for that, looks like stock wheels won’t work unless spacers are added.

 

@Samoan Thor I think there shouldn’t be a problem. There’s like 2-3” clearance.

 

JH6124 are you running shackles in the back?

 

@Yota100 nope, everything stock.

 

thats impressive with the 35s

 

Yep General x3s 35x12.5x17

 

Here’s the rear tire, no rubbing issues at all. I could probably get away with 37s in the rear. But the front can’t handle 37s with current set up.

 

what would make 37’s fit in the front? Glass and trimming or high clearance bumper?

 

Local person I know did 37s no glass on 3". Pinch weld hammered in and took a lot off the body mount. So far he says it clears static lock to lock and that he needs to take a little more off the cab mount to clear under compression.

 

you should be able to fit 37s up front..i have with no issues..i love that the 3.0s up front require no preload to get lift..that thing must feel like a cloudy dream on the road

 

any plans on running a dedicated leaf pack in the rear to take full advantage of your 3.0s ?

 

@Samoan Thor a LT kit? Spacers?

 

@14burrito really?!?! I have my body mount cut way back and it’s a no go! I’d like to see pics of that!

 

@zackbremer tell me your secret! I put a 37 on the front and it hit so bad! My 35s rub like crazy. I have the body mount chopped way down.

 

@TheBeast king calls for stock leaf pack but I wouldn’t be opposed to running something diff. The truck feels amazing as is but if I can get it better I’m all for it.

 

All I got. The pic of the CMC was from before the 37s....so he still need to take more off that....

 

I’m already cutting the cab mounting bracket. No clue how I can cut anymore.

 

what's the offset on those 17" Method ? 0 ?

 

@TheBeast yes 0

 

37 with my old fox 2.5s, she wasn’t having it.

 

So you went from Fox 2.5's to King 3.0? Why? Compare the two setups

 

wheel off set is going to be key, anything closer to 0mm is going to rub the body mount more. my wheels are 18mm also most alignment shops just align you like they do a car and compensate for road crown and get the toe even...so a few things
link to my 37 thread
https://www.tundras.com/threads/lil-lift-big-tires.16093/

1. what are your current alignment numbers
2. you want maximum caster to push the wheel as far forward as possible
3. i believe with the camburg arm you want about 5+ on the caster, i am at 3.7ish with total chaos but the arm naturally has more caster built into it with the bend it has
4. numbers should be camber even and close to 0 on both sides, max caster, toe even on both sides

you see in my thread that i clear the BMC easily, but upon compression i was hitting the skinny pinch weld, you need to make some cuts into this with a cutting wheel then take a hammer fold over the metal, i believe i have pics of this

@KevinK has 0 offset methods so he may be able to shine some light on getting the 37s to fit.

the rear will fit 37s no problem, worst case they rub the plastic inner fender liner on full compression but who cares

 

I need to find a shop that can align my truck properly. The numbers are somewhere in this thread @zackbremer

 

I don't know how you guys fit 37's my 35's rub all over in the front and hit the upper fender but not the pinch weld. I rub the rear fenders so much the lugs pull the fender lip and I have to hammer them back up. I took the BFH to the inner front fenders to create more space but still rub. I don't rub on the body mount at all but its been trimmed back. My caster is at about 8 with Camburg LT Arms.
