Just got the 37x12.5r18s on, barely fits in the spare as well. I am disappointed at how thin the falken 37x12.5s are, they look a lot more like 11.5s, but functionally they will be fine. I definitely would reccomend going with a 13.5 for falkens, as those should look like most brands 12.5s...

The rears are almost exactly the same as the stock dssvs, which are pretty long. I havent gotten too crazy adjusting the shocks yet, but at some point you are just going to be limited by how stiff the springs are. The biggest improvement is in bigger bumps, its about the same on smaller bumps...

I didn't take pics before installing, I will see if I can find something

Went to order a new 2026 zr2 HD bison, and found one that was almost exactly my order about 3.5 hours away, went ahead and picked it up! I wasted no time changing it, and swapped the shocks for dirt king 2.5s, put baja designs amber lights to replace the fogs, added a backflip revolver x4 bed...

Should I wait for the 2027 model? And does anyone know what if any changes are happening?

Nah, im getting the bison, I want the bumpers & skids, and rear locker. Planning to do real offloading. I wish they offered a bison without all the frilly stuff and leather, but oh well.

Its the only thing I havent been impressed with on the trucks I've test driven (other than the factory tires). I am used to king shocks, and my buddies over at Dirt king have a 2500 kit that rides amazingly well, and their UCA gives a ton more droop travel.

Im about to order my 2500 ZR2, and I heard from a supplier that there are going to be some improvements to the 2027 2500 ZR2 before the transition to the new body style in 2028 including: Updated larger DSSV shocks The new diesel 8.3L duramax Some other improvements I am planning on getting the...

So, just for everyone's information, I spoke with an Australian shop (Big dog Builds) who says they have some experience with modifying the zr2 suspension on the HD. He said: The king 2.5s extended fronts will work, but the rears will need a 1" rear rod end extension. The Fox 2.5 kit for leveled...

Fair enough. Hope someone knows something about the Kings either way :ROFLMAO: If not, I might volunteer to be the Guinea Pig

I mean, is it bad enough to consider a dodge? The 2500 zr2 hits almost all of my list, but if it really is that bad... or are they any better....

woof. I feel like thats basically every new car at this point... is there anything thats significantly better? I mean I know I'm on a chevy forum, and coming out of a chevy....

Has anyone tried the king shocks? From what I understand the 2.5 "extended" ones for 2-3" of lift should be a direct fit, but I haven't found anyone who has tried yet. I am looking to buy a new 2500 Zr2 in the next couple of months, and I love the ride I have on my current kings much better...
