KING 3.0 coilovers

@TheBeast negative, they are pretty dang strong!!!

 

Ok guys I need your help. First update on the 3.0s they ride really nice! My steering arm is hitting does anyone know of any steering kits or anything to stop this from happening? My plan is to raise them a little also get an alignment. Any info would be appreciated.

 

Did the mud flaps rub on that setup.

 

@Tacotundra hahaha no clue I took that pic from the pro eagle Instagram page.

 

You can try flipping the tie rod ends. Driver on passenger side and passenger on driver side.

 

Mine dont rub. What uppers are you running?

 

I didn’t see, but do you have heim adjustable uppers? If you do, run the lower control arm as far forward as you can and adjust for alignment with the uppers.

 

You made me get off the couch and double check haha. Ok well try what @KevinK said ^^^^^^. I have MCM uca's. Your sick uppers have all kinds of adjustments haha..

 

I have the camburg tube UCAs with 1.5” uniball. There’s adjustments for those?

 

Vegas is closer come to Arrow Alignment they are bad ass with our trucks and MCM uses them for his setups so they work on alot of Toyota's.

 

Not really man just what you can get off the lower cam bolts. Flipping the tie rods will work or take it to a good alignment shop and see if they can get the clearance you need.

 

Oh no!! That's no bueno. Might have to clearance the inside of those uppers they are huge. Or might be able change angle on fitting on the coilover for resi tube and move hose aft to get clearance also .

 

It should help may have to move the resi can aft also to help the hose move.

 

Is your hose sitting on the coil? Mine were like that and starting to wear. I loosened the fitting that goes into the shock and rotated the 90 degree piece to get the hose off the coil. Not sure if you’re having the same issue though.

 

I’ll shoot you some in the morning.

 

I second this. @ramonortiz55 @sdhq_offroad ?

 

I’m would be in.

 

I see where you going and where it will be mounted...

 

How much caster are you running?

Try reducing caster or swapping tie rods left to right and see if it fixes the clearance issue.

 

My UCA's came with weld on steering stop extensions. Something like that could possibly help too.

 

@OcotilloSR5 thanks for the info I will try it all!!

 

Let us know what you come up with!

 

Swapping tie rods left to right is the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard of, don’t bother. Your arms run too much caster, fight it all you want, or change arms.

 

What uppers do you have? Thought stock was your choice yesterday.

 

I have aftermarket arms. I was simply explaining that extended length coilovers fit with OEM arms and provided some examples.

 

Why is swapping tie rods the dumbest thing ever? It's flipping around the curve of the tie rod end. It's the same length and get you extremely close to the same pivot points on an alignment rack, just without the curved end facing the lower shock body.

 

Unless someone can provide an example of this idea not working, I can think of dumber ideas.

 

I can honestly say i've done dumber things haha
