Got my King 2.5 Piggyback rear shocks today, and I have had some people wanting to know about King's stuff in general. Got these put on and ran down some pretty rough ranch roads, I have to say they are smooth as butter. What was a smooth but "feelable" ride with the bilsteins is now like riding on air. I definately highly recommend King shocks & Coilovers for you guys from stock to lifted! As a compliment to the front coilovers the two work flawlessly together and I couldnt be happier with how smooth the truck is now. Also if your looking for King or Fox shocks check out DownSouth Motorsports

I'm also considering swapping out my 6" Deaver springs and going to a set of 10" Deaver springs in the rear when i get my rize traction bars, but am up in the air on that one since the install is a huge PIA. I think that would provide the ultimate in plush ride, not to mention really complete the suspension. Now the pics...

looksgood. how much did they run youy?

 

$750 from downsouth motorsports, that included custom valving.

 

What are you doing with your bilsteins?

 

You have way too much freakin money.

 

Cool man looks great!

 

your truck has to be the luckiest SOB on the site...as always looks bitchin'

 

Matt, glad to hear that they make the truck feel balanced now! I like how on your kings they use a poly mount to the frame vs my hiem joint on my custom sway-aways.

Looks rad like always!!!

 

Thanks guys and thanks agian Chris for the input on piggyback shocks.

Bilsteins will go up for sale sometime within the next week.

 

How much would they have been without custom valving?

 

I they are 750, unless you buy the coilovers at the same time then they are 729. Downsouth does the valving and shipping for free is my understanding. Buying direct from king and they would not be valved to your specs, just the OE valving king would use. Mine are valved street & trail, but they can valve for most anything.

 

Glad to see you got them! I told you they were going to be REALLY nice!

 

Very nice

 

i want someeee haha. Matt your making me want to put off the other mods and buy some King coilovers and rear shocks haha
