6 in Lift w/ King Coilovers

[BombSq030]

Hey guys,

Ordered some custom kings for a six inch lift. After a long 12 weeks, they're here and got them on the truck. Wyoming washboard roads now practically feel like pavement. Only problem is I went a little too crazy and seems I've bent my end link extensions.

Now gotta save up for the rears. Pro comp rears don't cut the mustard.
Additionally, I'm still getting a little bump steer going fast over larger sizes bumps, but feels like it's coming from the rear. Possibly from the currente shocks. Anyone ever experience the same issue?

Dump the procomp rear shocks and get the matching 2.5 King pair for the back. You might get away with some Fox 2.0's for the time being but now that you know how front feels like driving hard on washboards, rear 2.0 shocks won't keep up for long. i'm on Week # 8 myself waiting for my new King rear shocks. Damn Covid chit is adding some extra weeks of waiting time

Yes it is and it was a LONG 12 weeks. But worth it. I 100% will be getting the rears to match. Just have to wait a bit first. It's a little tough not just dishing the catch out lol. Sucks being an adult sometimes

For that bump steer (wheel hop) get some CORE 4x4 Lower control arms my friend, I had the same issue with my truck when I lifted it and got them and now when I go over bumps and washboard roads the truck feels planted ...

My completely stock ‘17 big horn will get a little squirmy at speed hitting some rough sections of road. Feels like it comes from the rear.

Truck looks great!

After a little research, that seems like the general consensus. Probably will do that and track bar. Eventually I'll get the kings for the rear and then start going back to engine performance
