All right, finally done! Well, 99.9% a couple small tweaks. But compressors wired and working, all hardline, height control are done. Just make some new links, clamp hard lines, wire a master disconnect on the pressure switch and wire the dump option, only waiting on last parts.
works really well, definitely happy with not having the squat when loaded.

Everything has seemed smooth so far, loaded the bed for holiday travelling, full of wood too. Nice test last week with trailer and small tractor.

Hey FabAddict,
How's the truck been holding up with all the suspension mods?

Pretty darn good. Put new tires on yesterday and just seeing how dirty it was down there.


It really came in handy with the move. Borrowed a 30' trailer and this load had things like, the safe, welder, tube bender, couches, metal and what not on the 10 hour drive.

Hey, I appreciate the update. That's great to hear and it's looking pretty clean from here haha
Is your front suspension stock besides the Kings?
I'm debating about doing this to my Tahoe, I just don't want much if any lift.

Ya, stock except the Kings. They are a 2" lift or leveling. I would highly recommend Thuren Fab again if I was buying them because of their many stages to choose from based on your style of use.
From my understanding on those King kits, they put a little spacer on the inside to limit the droop travel because stock ball joints can't handle it. They can remove that if you ask but you need uniball upper arms. I think it's like 1" more travel you gain.
I think when my ball joints go bad I'm going to try and get some uniball arms amd in a couple years when the Kings need to get rebuilt have them remove that. I very rarely max out the suspension but I would like to try it. But $1,200 for 1"🤔
Don't 100% trust me on that, just something King mentioned to me.
