Would you say your Kings ride pretty smooth? or do you have them set up to be stiffer? I sent mine in to get a smoother ride and eliminate the "topping out" problem I was having.

Is your spring rate an 18"x800#? I thought that is what your springs read, mine is an 18"x700#; I wanted to swap out to a 16"x600# but Sonny and King said no need because of what they did with the 18" springs.
Dunno no the the spring rate they are set at, but yeah I maintain the same smooth ride as b4.
Some guys from this forum have had a chance to ride in my truck, they can attest how smooth the ride is considering the size and type of tire, hight and weight of the truck.

Sure we can do that, can you afford $180,000 shipping fee? I take food stamps but no IOUs.

Lookin' good, Leo, I love seeing the things you do to your truck. Can't wait to see how the hood turns out, too. I'll bet those new tires run great! I'm hoping to replace my Toyos before they reach that much wear.

Sunday March 11th:

After I finished designing my window net and my wife finished sewing it together,



I added the Grommets





Then crazy got the best part of me and I made a bunch of holes around my windows





Then I took zippy ties to secure the net on my window openings.









With the windows up



With the windows down






The purpose of the window net is to be able to keep my windows rolled down and stop most of the dust from entering the truck, branches form slapping me or my passengers or being hit by flying pebbles when running the trials; it is intended for off road use only.
