Front Suspension Candy! Kings and Carl's UCA's

[Desert Yeti]

Another part of my week long super build. Lot's of nights til 1 AM fabricating, Installing, running to the Powdercoater and removing Diffs

Longer than stock King's with external compression adjusters and Carl's UCA's

What shocks are those? Did King make them custom for that application?

 

[Desert Yeti]

Carl at JT's has them all spec'd out to the correct dimensions for his UCA's. Give him a call, He was great to work with. I did my gears at the same time as well.

Looks good. What's the green bracket/plate?

Found it in your other link. (You should have a build thread!)

 

[wngrog]

Give him a call.

Oh, not for me. I am not interested in making this pig of mine much more than a good looking mall cruiser.

I was just wondering.

Have been able to gain any more travel?

Haven't jumped her yet, I'm guessing the long-travel Tundra rtill beats the 100 in that category

Those are some purdy shocks!

I just noticed this. Where the knuckle bolts into the UCA, there is no cotter pin. Why is that?

 

[SHAGGY101]

There is a lock nut instead so you can properly torque the tapers

More King Shock Eye Candy!

Got a couple of full sets in stock! Have a look

Just curious what PSI are guys running in these new Kings? I have about 150 psi and middle setting on the compression adjusters. I need to play around a bit this weekend with the setup but would like some other feedback.

I am willing to allow my 100 to be sponsored by JTs Parts & Accessories, Justdifferentials.com . We can start by shipping me a set of these beautiful Kings along with a new ARB front diff and some new gears since I've graduated to 315/75/16 KM2's...

I wish I could tell you . Gotta love those guys!

No kidding. I guess asking for an ideal setting from King is a little stupid though given the differences like weight, terrain, speed, etc... I try to remind myself if I wanted a one size fits all shock I would not have bought them. Oh well, heading out to Anza Borrego right now for three days to try to break something.

this will need pics for proof either way

I havent put mine on yet, can you post pics of how you mounted the rear reserviors. They gave me weld on mounts but im leaning toward buying the Polyurethane mounts to mount them to the shock directly. If you have any more pics of where you placed the reservior mounts for the front (where you drilled/placement), that would be great.
