Very nice package indeed
Can you share any specs on the shocks?
Rod dia', piston dia' , travel etc.

Did they get in any Kings specific valving or did you ask for your specific valving ?

Sorry to hear about the long lead time, fox are very similar nowadays and many European vendors also.

Very nice and super clean build Sir.

2.5" dia, 2" lift (roughly 10" travel), adjusters, front revalved for heavy FTE, winch bumper, ect. Nothing to fancy, it may be used as a work truck! :steer:

Cheers

Very high end for a work truck in my part of the world...:clap:
I would expect a great ride with minimal to none heatup issues with these, even at very high ambient temp's and heavy loads.
Does King have good service and available spare parts at your area?
I would be very much interested to see photos of the vehicle fitted, with
A written description log of the ride quality through your eyes.
I love these things, don't have a lot of available reading material in this field...:cheers:
 
Got this today.

The original plan was to run the top mount and a front mount. As @TonyP mentioned, there is no front mount kit for a wide nose FTE 70 series. There was some consideration of doing something custom on the front but I told @SNLC to just do the top mount for now.
 
The CC top mount needed just a bit of customizing on the mounts and brackets.

The ARB compressor for OBA dropped in here like Toyota meant for it to happen. I don’t recall what was mounted here originally maybe ABS pump. The compressor though required no brackets/mounts made and no holes drilled.

Aux fuel tank finished up. I don’t recall if I mentioned it before but this is a 100-series LRA tank. We custom fitted it and also had to move the filler neck to the RHS.
