everything finally installed and first drive with it all to work lol

biggest and best mod so far is the brakes and lines. breaking feels wonderful

suspension is way stiffer then i thought it would be even with the dampers set at the softest setting

body mount chopped for bigger tires on the way.

Looking good so far!
 
I'm looking hard at those Kings to replace my current Icons.
How many miles have you had them and how are you liking them?
Also, do the fronts offer any extended travel, or are they the King factory replacement spec?
 
From the listed specs Cooper are shorter than Toyo. I have AT2s and the spare didn’t fit.

you mentioned earlier that you swapped in a 460 driveshaft, what’s the reason for the swap?
Yeah, I was wondering about the 460 drive shaft. This is the first I hear of this, so I wanted to know the benefits. I need to address the clunk in my current drive shaft, but I was just going to get an upgraded GX470 one. Greasing wears off too fast on the current one.

Also, when you get a chance, can you measure your hub to fender distance in all four corners? GX470 seems fairly tall or the tires make it look taller.

You are running the 34's Wildpeaks on what rim sizes and offset?

You've done a lot of good work and even got Kings in there. Wow.
