    Springs are swapped. Went from 13” 650lbs to 14” 700lbs. Used Kings because it was $175 for two compared to $240 for the icons.

    It definitely feels way different when you take it off but after awhile it’s nothing.

    My issue is my truck is my daily/work/offroad toy and my Cobra is my "show car/racecar" and it is not a good daily vehicle and I won't dare drive it in the winter or the rain so when my truck needs fixing I have to get a lot of things lined up or have a buddy available to do parts runs with.

    It's not bad. I do 600-ish miles a week on the highway in mine with no issues, my average speed is probably 80 mph.

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    What's your suspension? Stock I wouldn't do it, too much body roll in a panic maneuver and it'll only make things worse. If you have some stiffer aftermarket coils it'll change the characteristics quite a bit but it's more doable.

    I like it. It handles better for sure And doesn’t really feel stiffer. I’m really glad I did it. Just dropped it off for an alignment.

    Those of you with retrofits, specifically fxr out similar, how do you or do you protect the rear as the old boot has nothing to attach to.
