    2015 Off Road here, and my springs are flat also... I do haul things occasionally, and have put the truck on the rear bumpers once or twice.

    Should I go see the local dealer about these, or just start thinking about putting new springs on a new (2500 miles) truck?

    enough to go over stuff
    Did you mean rear bump stops or bumpers? if you plan to lift the front Id do some allpro expos or OME dakars in the rear. they will hold the wieght.

    We favor Fox. They are a great shock, they provide a smooth ride, Fox has great customer service in the long run, and compared to King, they are priced right. We offer remote reservoir and non-reservoir Fox shocks for the rear of your truck. They give you 9.6" travel.

    I can get you more information if you want, just let me know!

    I'm happy to answer any questions, any time!

    deaver.jpg Installed these on my rears last week and it gave me about 2.75 inches. Took about 3 hours because I didn't have any power tools but its pretty easy and I did notice a ride difference.

    Yes its my understanding that the expos will give you 4" of lift when unloaded and 3" lift when you have certain amount of weight in the back I've asked around for the length of shock I would need to fit expos and all I've gotten was you need to measure to know exactly, im looking for remote reservoir can you help me out

    Im looking at the ICON stage 1 kit adjusted to 2.5 in the front. I want to get OME Dakars leaf spring set for the rear. Anyone know if the rear shocks will fit with the Dakars?

    I can help you out!

    The shocks need to have 9.6" of travel to run our rear springs.

    Fox offers a few different "levels" of shocks, depending on your budget.

    Fox 2.5 Factory Series with DSC adjuster; $1,199.00/pair;
    Fox P/N 883-26-006


    Fox 2.0 Performance Series -CD Adjuster; $669.90/pair; Fox P/N 985-26-118

    Fox 2.0 Performance Series -
    Non-Adujustable; $449.90/pair; Fox P/N 985-24-118

    These shocks offer a remote reservoir for a 0-3" lift and work very well with our springs.

    You can find more information on our site at Let me know if you have any questions. :)

    So what did you decide? Kurtis with AP hooked it up and broke it all down for me. I am curious as to what you have decided.

    Looking forward to hearing your impressions once you get everything in hand. Out of curiosity, isn't that rear shock the model that is specified for the Tundra?

    Answered my own question, I got them for my truck and they seem to work well. A little stiff though, should be fine when I get a shell.
