Ram 1500 King Coilovers 6" to 2"

[wellsj89]

Hey Guys, i got a set of King Coilovers that were previously out of a ram 1500 with a 6" lift. I am not planning on running a 6" lift on mine and was wondering if anyone knew if I could convert these back to a 2" lift. From looking at them it looks like the shaft and bottom spacer might be the only things that change. Does anyone have any knowledge on King shocks? I know Kings are fully rebuildable as I am rebuilding a set of rear shocks for my truck currently.

What are the spring specs ?
You should see numbers somewhere in the springs, this is from my King CO's


Also can you measure the length between the upper CO mount and the bottom eyelet, Your assembly is longer for sure compared to mine.

Not likely but I do not know for sure. I would contact King and check directly with them. I believe there will be more to it. Also the RAM they came off of, does that RAM have the same engine as yours? If not the coil spring rates will be different and so may the valving.

@ram1500rsm Hard to see the part number on the coil but they are about 27.75” long.
