Front and rear?!
Good luck with 35s and 1.5". You'll rub in turns, in reverse, going over a ramp, basically anything. Unless you cut out your liners and crash bars almost completely, which is a waste on these trucks imo.
I don’t know whats more amazing? You had 9 sets with only two leaks or how bad the new set looks. So they denied your warranty due to the Tremor application? I can see that if you pulled them apart, but the finish has nothing to do with that. I also don’t know why KING’s can ever be taken out of any use case. They can be custom made and tuned. Problem is the wait time is so high for any custom shock right now you may have a new truck before you get them.
Lol, 2 unexpected leaks.. the rest were in the 20k mile range. Kings are definitely great and can be tuned for anything but they can't be tuned for everything. We'll, unless you go away from their skillset. Icon would have repaired them within the year but from a liability standpoint, me getting in an accident with suspension that is "not compatible" isn't a thing, for me.
Just rip my heart out then.
Keep your stock wheels and this works just fine. 285/75/R18 34.8” O.D. Halos with collars spun almost all the way up for about 1.5” lift. Zero rubbing or problemsJust rip my heart out then.
I’m also thinking about doing a Raptor front end swap. For me it’s a tested proven system with Ford parts. Warranty might not be affected if installed by a dealer. I also like the OEM parts. I have been patiently waiting for the Tremor specific aftermarket to come to life but it’s basically non existent.
Do you know how much that front end swap costs? I've been curious about that.
There are many different ways of doing it, plus if you want to improve on the stock setup. You can get a mid travel kit around $15K without glass. PAX Power will do the basic swap for $20K and climb fast with options. This is the easiest and probably the best way to go if you have the money. If you are patient and shop around for used take offs I have seen people do it for $5K just for the parts in the front and rear using Gen1 stuff. No glass, labor or wider rear axle. I see so many Toyota guys doing mid travel and setting them up for bigger tires vs desert use. That's what I would try and do. Everyone running 2.5"+ lifts are maxing out the down travel and CV's. The wider A-Arms and longer axles would give you the CV angles back plus the ability to set them up for a taller ride height to clear 35'-37's. I wouldn't even do glass because I would run a longer shock and I already have 3" of tire sticking out now with my street wheels. Maybe the next build, but my next truck will probably be a Raptor R.
Afaik their UCA doesn't work with the adaptive headlights for anyone considering them. It doesn't have the mount for the sensor.
they now have a bracket to mount the leveling sensors to the billet UCA's. nothing for the tubular that i can see.
According to their instructions there is a bracket that is sold separately. But I don't see a part number...
