    Hey all. With the OEM King coilovers what is the option that says "choose for lifted truck"? These are on the non clicker coilovers. Dumb question, but I thought the OEM King coilovers provided lift? Thanks in advance.

    Is that what your asking about? Custom length front/rear shocks?

    That's it yes. Are they talking about a lift external to the coilovers themselves? In other words, those shocks are capable of giving a lift of up to 2.5" without having to add anything else?

    Yes. 2.5”, unless you want more.

    Call the fellas at Filthy Motorsports. They will line you up right.

    With the OEM King 2.5 rear shocks is 1" enough lift so the shock doesn't bottom out?

    With my 7" lift I had to go the custom length route. Ben at Filthy Motorsports is great. He answered ALL my questions and asked questions I didn't know to ask. Check out my build thread to see them in all their glory.

    I second the recommendation of giving Filthy Motorsports a call. I recently went the King route with SPC UCAs and Deaver leaf springs and am very happy with them. Ben was able to answer all my questions and didn't do the typical sales pitch trying to sell more than I needed for my build and use.

    No joke, i am really dreading my next credit card bill. Not so much because of all the mess i have bought, but for all the lip i will have to listen to.
    I have a invisible mute button though so it really doesn't bother me. I have learned over the years of marriage just to let it go thru one ear and out the other and be quite.
    When you mouth back, it is like throwing gas on the fire, so i just don't waist my breath and don't listen. lol
