Put KYB Monomax shocks on my 2019 Tundra 1794 4 x 4. Also installed the KYB Monomax Truck Plus quick struts. The control and ride far surpasses the factory struts and shocks. No leaning in turns and no harshness. If you have a truck and need shocks don't pass on these.
I want to get a 255/85R16, maybe I should look into the 235/85R16 since it is really hard to find the 255’s in load range C all the 255’s are E and I’m trying to keep rolling mass as low as possible. Eventually I am going to get lightweight rims. My 2023 Tacoma TRD OR comes with 265/70R16.
I have 2004 Tahoe Z71 with the original stock shocks , 220K miles. I do zero off road driving and i want the most comfortable street performance driving shocks that has no body roll or bouncy ride. Shocks of interest are Billstein 4600, KYB MonoMax, or Gas a Just. I don't t know the type shocks cop Tahoe's use but any suggestion would be appreciated. PS I had a 1996 Impala and loved that cop suspension setup.
I’ve done that one a number of times. Our club sponsors it. Not for wimps or sissies, both mechanical and human. Group travel mandatory and no yahoos or heroes need come along.
Good content I subbed working on a 88 FJ62 going to 16" wheels but I might have to run spacers, never had to do that will they hold up wheelin? Im not going to Moab or anything just around here in NC Arkansas
Nice I had one of these in Afg, it wasnt mine of course, it ended up KIA. I just picked up an 88 FJ62 been working on it for a year running driving now....
There is an easy answer to that question. The company that makes the clamps get a "kick back" from the tool manufacturer. It's the reason for all the "specialty tools" needed in modern technologies. 💪🇺🇲🤘
I will agree with you that the world and especially American people have become so lazy that they will go to metric instead of having to think and use the Imperial side.I feel sorry for you give up too easy.
Same with today's electrical panels, you need multiply types of screw drivers to work in one panel. Lets go back to standard imperial sizes here in America.
No, all thing in the US was at one time standardized, all imported items were made to imperial standards. I was a ASE mechanic in the 60's and 70's. only had to have one set of tools and didn't need to have a 10k tool box to hold all the metric and standard tools to be able to work on one car.
Speaking from experience, the hose clamp kits you get from a famous auction site are usually metric which is apparently what you have. 9/32 just happens to fit.
@@tmarbut in a toyota techs normal tool box a 7mm doesn’t get used and most of the time can not be found 8,10, 12,14,17,19,21,22,24,30,35 is pretty much all you need to work on anything toyota, Willy’s tool box isn’t much different 1/4,5/16,3/8,7/16,1/2,9/16 etc no 7mm or 9/32 would normally be found 😒
If boot was pushed outward to clear it is a known problem that it will eat itself quickly on rcv axles. In this case the axle shaft is larger diameter and would still slightly rub the larger lower shock stem of the king shock at full turn. The cheap fix would be still run oem axle shafts and that’s not the point of this. It is very common to push the shock forward at the bottom slight amount. The shock will see no difference and all the components will be happy.
So what I'm hearing is instead of pushing that overly large boot down an inch, you're going to change the shock geometry, add a questionably tig'd tab, probably screw up the top shock bushing, maybe cause shock to bend. All to keep the showy orange boot.
@@ozarkoverlandoutfitters9218 yes actually i perfectly understand. By changing angle of that shock at full extention, when its under load the more shock is compressed the sharper angle becomes. If they are high siding or climbing over a rock the lateral torque on that shock becomes extreme. Either your weld breaks, or the top attachment gives, or the shock rod bends. 3/8" doesn't sound like much but the forces (leverage) involved are massive, that shock is designed for purely vertical movement, you're making it take lateral force.
