Pics or it didnt't happen :)
I've been debating about lifting or at least bringing my Tahoe up to stock height with some Kings for about a year.
Serious question: How do you like your Kings and how is the ride quality?

Rides great! A heck of a lot better than 130,000mi stock suspension.
For the most part I leave them in the softest setting.
Only have them off-road one time unfortunately though even with all the miles I put on them.

Also, the only reason I put a 1 inch lift spacer in the rear is because the Kings on the front and their lowest setting actually raise the front end 3in from stock.
I preferred it when I just had a 2 inch leveling kit in the front as far as ride height. And one thing I've noticed is that because the spring perch on the bottom of my King's is as low as it goes, the front axles actually have been rubbing into it for a long time.
So maybe someday I won't get shorter springs for the front so I can actually move the perch up and have some adjustability.

Appreciate the pics and info :cheers:
How long have you had them on?
How would you say the ride is? From the time you went off-road were you pleased with the ride and how it performed?

I'm lowered and 2wd, I just hit 250k miles and am kinda getting sick of my stiff lowered ride, its actually been hurting my back especially at slow speeds.
I've been chatting with a company who would sell a package F/R set tuned and he would accommodate my needs of wanting a stock height set up.

Sorry for all the questions, been pondering this for a long time and don't know anyone who has experience with this type suspension.
