    Did I install these correctly. King rear shocks.

    turbo, I have the same rear shocks and mine are mounted opposite of yours, the hose should be facing towards the center of the truck. You may need to turn the shocks some so it lines up with the mount, but it should fit like King recommends. Keep an eye on your driver side rear reservoir...

    King Rear Shock Rubbing on Sway Bar

    Late update, I heard back from King and they told me it's the reservoir mount that's rotating. I explained that the reservoir mount is snug and that the actual shock body is rotating. I can turn the entire shock by pulling on the reservoir. Their reply was "That can not be the case. That...

    King Rear Shock Rubbing on Sway Bar

    The King reservoirs are attached by a hose with a nice mount that attaches to the shock body. I should be able to mount the reservoirs separately but I might need a longer hose. The passenger side doesn't have this problem so I would only need to mount the driver side shock. I've sent an...

    King Rear Shock Rubbing on Sway Bar

    I'm having a problem with my King rear shocks, part # 25001-334A. The driver side shock keeps rotating and causes the reservoir to rub against the sway bar. It's already made a dent in the reservoir and seems like it will make a hole eventually. Has anyone else had this problem? Is there...

    Build Thread: Mothra, the (blown) budget camping rig

    Not sure if you ever got this solved. If not, have you tried getting your wheels balanced with a Haweka Flange Plate Adaptor? I had three different wheel shops balance my FJ wheels, including Discount Tire, but never could get rid of the vibration. I finally took it to a Toyota dealership and...

    For my 99, it was just plug and play.

    OEM toyota wheel options/pics for 3rd gen 4runner *post em up*

    Not exactly what you were asking about but I have these on a stock 99 with 275/70R16 KO2s and I have no problems with rubbing, even at full lock.

    Help me spend money on a new head unit

    Already tried mounting the HU above and below the tray. The rca connectors are causing the problem, the connectors stick out of the back too far to mount the HU flush in the dash. They are some old Esoterics that I had from previous builds. Do you know what kind of cables you are using on the...

    Help me spend money on a new head unit

    Vanion, were you able to get the DEH-80PRS to fit in a 3rd gen? I'm trying to run it active but the rca cables stick out of the back too far to mount the head unit. I'm wondering if some 90* adapters will let me cram the rca cables in the back.
