Baja kits pre-runner & king 2.5

[Chicks406]

Good morning,
Just placed the order for the Baja kits prerunner kit with King 2.5s. Ive always wanted to build/own a pre-runner style truck looking forward to getting close.
Any one on here running this or a similar set up?

Essentially looking to build the Chevy Jackal.

I was just looking at the exact same kit, I think. Sadly, I was an in an accident last night and it's looking like the TB will be totaled. I'm safe and the truck took a beating in the accident. The sheer angle of the impact is what likely did it (oncoming car turned left and cut across me as I was traveling through an intersection).

I could make an argument that they might not total it out but the impact wiped out the entire front driver-side and crushed in on to the tire. It's a hearty truck for sure. I'm super pumped to see how your build turns out since mine looks toast.

Sorry to hear that man, but glad you are ok. I believe someone else posted on here about how well this truck has done in an accident. Hopefully you get it back and can move forward with the build.

Dude do you mind posting a link to your kit? I'm considering trying to see if I can convince them to not total me out because of the inventory issues. I might have them drop in the suspension if I can pull it off with me paying the difference.

That would be sick. Hopefully it works out.

I ended with with $25k of damage and they won't total. Luckily, some guy backed out his ZR2 Silverado so I picked it up. The suspension on the ZR2 is fairly comparable with what you're doing, maybe 80% as good but the warranty is worth it.

Kit installed it sat very low so I used the leveling it I had to achieve more height. Sounds like most use some type of leveling kit.

Dude! Amazing! The truck looks beefier, man. How much travel do you think you gained?

Thanks man. Not sure yet, I haven’t picked it up yet but I’ll see if I can get full droop and compression. It sits super wide so fenders are next.
