I ordered from Wheelers and waited about 6-7 months for the Kings to be delivered. I was expecting the ride to be smoother/softer. Everyone I spoke to claimed that their truck rode like a Cadillac and felt in their own words “like buttah”.

I guess having a 2020 TRD Pro T4R, I was expecting the ride to be more like that.

On road the Kings were harsh over bumps and I could feel every bump and freeway expansion joint. The feeling was almost the same as the Bilsteins I had before. The same bumps that would upset the chassis prior still did with the Kings installed.

Most of the off-roading I do consists of slow rutted trails with obstacles thrown in or a rocky dirt road to go fishing. I was expecting the Kings to be smoother off road and be able to drive at least a little faster.

Maybe I was expecting to much? Kings are in another league price wise compared to Bilstein, so I was expecting the ride and control to be in another league also.

A revalve would have costed me 600.00. I couldn’t justify paying to for basically a rebuild on a brand new shock.

Word of advise to anyone ordering suspension.

Order from a dealer that will revalve the shocks to your liking. Because stock valving isn’t the greatest
