Just getting started, a little bit of a bear getting things going but king instructions are pretty good
removing lower control arts from frame is the easy button for sure. Done for tonight but I’ll post more as I go.

You will really enjoy the ride with the kings. I can get over how much they help on windy paved mountain roads over my Sas OEM setup.

Looks good. Looks like you got a front set with the long hoses, so you should be good.

The rear was a PITA to get the lower bolt out. OEM Specs say 350 ft-lb and I believe it. My impact wouldn't budge it.

Had a similar issue... My snap-on breaker bar has a slight bend to it now, had to buy a M18 high torque impact to resolve the issue.

Please elaborate? What would oem sas do to you in those specific conditions?

I have a 4 door 2.7l BL that came with Sasquatch package (35's). My confidence around turns was allot less with my OEM suspention and the body roll was a lot more noticeable. I frequently drive in our local mountains. With the King's the Bronco feels more planted and predictable. Off road I am familiar with the Kings and they have been great. I was just pleasantly surprised how they helped the ride on road... That's my long winded point....

Has anyone tested something “top-shelf” like the Kings versus the HOSS 3.0?

HOSS comes with more than just shocks, I know, but I’m curious
