Quick question on the FO control arms. If I only have about an inch of lift in the rear, will I be alright going with the fixed arms over the adjustable ones?

Yes. You’d be fine. I’m somewhere between 1.5-2” of rear lift currently. It’s all based on pinion angle and wheel alignment in the wheel well so you don’t rub. I may extend mine ever so slightly to push mine back 1/4”. I have an angle finder that I’ll use to keep my pinion angle within 5°

Alright, thanks for the info!

Yes sir. No need adjustable arms for just 1" rear lift. You'll be paying extra for the adjustability, but adjusting them for stock lenght.

Got ahold of accutune. They said they no longer work with king on custom length shocks. Waiting on a reply from filthy. Next option would be going straight through king or settling for the fox's until covids over and king gets back to normal business

I contacted Accutune today as my neighbor is on a similar boat. They said they will revalve them and tune them but the order process goes through King if it's custom length. My take they were getting burned by people asking "I ordered my shocks 2 months ago and i haven't received them yet.." i was there in Dec 2020 and i thought the 14 weeks i had to wait was excessive. get this, the new waiting times as of today 04/16/2021 are now 6-9 freaking months for Kings or Fox , so once you get your custom length shocks from King you'll ship them to Accutune for work.

And the dude told me at least King will still build custom length shocks, he said good luck asking Fox to do the same.

This covid chit has really messed up our world

Digging up an old thread but the pdf won’t open for me. In the process of changing up my suspension and want to possibly get new rear springs. Any chance it’ll open for someone else and you can post a screen shot?

Edit: it worked this time. Not sure why it was freaking out. Was looking at the measurement for my eibach rear springs because I’m trying to bring the rear end down a little bit. Was debating on installing a superlifts 6” and run it at 5” front and 3.5” rear or an aev kit but I want to keep my fox 2.5 setup so looks like I’ll be sticking to my 2.5” lift height for a bit longer. Eventually I may swap up to the superlifts 6” and order some Clayton 3.5” rear lift springs and new custom rear fox 2.5 shocks
