    Currently nothing. King suspension ordered
    Has anyone installed the king 2.5 278-EXT suspension? Been looking through the forums but everything that comes up is non EXT. What is the difference other than it’s extended? Does it require a different mounting location?

    thanks in advance,

    ~Brad

    That’s what will be going on mine. It’s just extended travel on the shock. The extended travel and standard shocks are basically the same, except the "standard" shock has an extra spacer inside to limit shaft travel. If you are going extended, you need aftermarket UCAs though.
