    I haz axe we can use lol

    and yes my experience with the KO2s on both my older jeep and an old work truck was absolutely fucking shit especially for the hydroplaning.
    I hit the guardrail on the 400 to 401 east ramp where it straightened out. tried to pick up speed to merge and hydroplaned right into the side was probably doing 70km and it really was not raining hard. If there is any standing water you will hydroplane they just are complete fcking shit at moving water.
    Loud, rough riding. Only benefit to them is they're strong. But why not get the ST Maxx which is just as strong if not stronger and actually good in all conditions.

    They give a 2" lift. The 2016+ TRD Pros effectively don't have any lift.

    That set gives 2" for 2nd gen and 1" for 3rd Gen, because 3rd Gens are already lifted 1" more than 2nd gen from the factory.

    2017 pros also come lifted, they sit 1" higher than any other 2017 models.

    But going with 6112/5160 would be better vs that OEM suspension, because they can be adjusted for a Taco lean without spacer.

    ^How do you adjust for lean without a spacer with 6112? I was under the impression the spring perch graduations are too coarse to change by just 1/2"?

    ^Oh cool, looks like the 6112 has finer adjustments in 0.5" graduations. Perfect.

    de-badged, tint front windows, led interior lights, door sill protectors, led b/up lights, 5" factory step rails, yellow turn signal bulbs, added 4 D ring tie downs. Took off the black vinyl stripes between the doors. Changed the grill - from Custom Car Grills, Finally got a tonneau cover put on. 31" light bar ( white & amber ), tailgate light bar, sunvisor covers ( to hide warning labels ), new bedside decals - still too cold to put them on tho. Flag decals to go on too, again too cold still. Got a 2 switch, switch plate to replace that useless cubby hole to the left of the steering wheel.. still to be installed ( hopefully this weekend ). Upgraded the tires to G/Y Duratracs... loving them, no plowing the driveway !!
