OEM King rear shocks with OME 861 or Superflex springs ok??
Heyyo! Time to make the move to 35's! Right now I have Kings front and rear with OME890 springs. Will the stock OEM kit King rear shocks w/Res be fine with taller OME861 or Toytec Superflex springs in the rear??

Are you keeping the rear sway bar or loosing it?
If your keeping it the Kings will be fine. It limits your down travel.
If your loosing it the Kings will limit your down travel by almost 2". I had King make a custom set for me since I wanted as much droop as possible. Since you already have them though I'd say just use them. If your locked in the rear the droop you loose isn't a real deal breaker.

Should be fine, won't really run into any issues. I've got 861s and Kings.. it's the perfect combo.

I ditched the rear sway bar a while ago, and will have to get extended links for the front when I raise it... and yeah, I'm locked. I've been meaning to weld in some limit straps, so I might add that to my list. Thanks for reminding me!

I've seen your instagram, and your rig looks pretty raked out, even with a RTT. Is that by design? Or do the 861's lift the rear higher than the Kings can match in the front?

The STD length kings are really short. I would not recommend going beyond 3" of lift (891s max).
@ derpiful
has custom length kings which have a lot more travel to them.

Ahh yes, thank you for that clarification!
