Who has done UCAs and King 2.5s?

[Blueoval26]

I’m running the adjustable King 2.5’s with APG UCA’s. I’m also running Deaver springs with ranger raptor bump stops. I absolutely love the set up. Short of a long travel, it is the best I’ve experienced so far. My brother runs the 2.0 Fox setup and it is good until the speed really picks up. Then the 2.0’s seem to reach their limits especially if you hit something unexpected. The Deaver springs are way better than the OEM parabolic system. There is a reason King and Deaver are leaders in the offroad racing world. Contact APG. They are just up the street from King Shocks and have worked extensively with them on valving setups specifically for our Rangers. They may get their shocks quicker than other suppliers too based on their working arrangement.

You’ll love them. APG worked with Deaver on the spring rate to get a very linear rate of progression through the travel. Night and day difference.

Allen your truck is sitting pretty man nicely done. They should consider selling that bumper it looks good. Are you going to re gear this thing when the kits come out? It would probably make it rip.

Yea I’m in the market for a locker kit, it rips as it is honestly. This 10 speed transmission with a tune makes a huge difference! And they sell the bumper but it’s like SVC where you gotta trim the frame horns

I agree .

I would say 33" to 35" tires it's optional to regear, given the ratio of the first gear it's such a smooth 10 speed, but higher than that it might be worth it to regear. I haven't heard of any kits out yet.

Likewise agree, not necessary to regear on 35s, especially with a tune. You definitely notice them but my truck is heavier than most and still moves well

I think we're gonna order the King 2.5s with adjusters, the Deaver rear leaf springs, and the Camburg UCAs...

As I keep researching, everything keeps pointing to Kings as far as what I want too.

Did you adjust the preload ring to adjust ride height? Or did you just install them as-is, fresh from the box? How much lift did you get from them?

APG says 12" of travel
