King's installed today... FYI paid 375.00 for the install. Will get the Bronco aligned tomorrow. Seems to ride a few inches higher, but King said only 1/2 higher than my sas. I should have done a before and after measurement. SO far like them a lit.

So far I am really liking the King coilovers. I am still in the engine break-in period so I have not tested them off road. SO take this with a grain of salt.... They increased the height of the truck slightly and leveled it out. On road they feel slightly stiffer than the Sas shocks, but not much. I noticed a lot less body roll now and the Bronco no longer leans forward and backwards as much when accelerating or braking. I can also adjust them softer or stiller if I wanted. Which is sort of fun.
Big difference when I hit some of the flood control channels on our local streets at 40mph.
At off roadeo I bottomed out a few times with their BL/Sas Bronco's. I was driving pretty hard, but still I could tell I would need to upgrade to Fox or Kings for our wooped out high speed desert runs.

Stiff eh… What do you have the compression adjusters set to right now?

 

[Losy]

slightly stiffer...
No sure how many clicks in they are now. I would need to back them out and see what they are adjusted to.

What upper control arms and rear links did you go with?

 

[Losy]

No uppers control arms yet or new links. I like the RPG uppers if I went with billet. But if I cheap out and go with the tube style probably Camburg.

Cheap out lol you already spent nearly 4k on the kings but I get not wanting to drop another 3,100 on UCA and links. I’m trying to figure out what I’m doing is why I’m asking.

Seems like there are some good options out there. Let me know if you find something you like.

@Losy can I get a pic of how you mounted the front reservoirs? Namely the 90 degree hose port orientation

I have a set of RPG uppers in the for sale section. Just need to dump them, they are taking space int eh bac seat of my car if you want them.
