    Indeed.

    What’s the stock height for the rear? These leaf spring came with the truck on the old lift. I think they sit at 3”

    So does anyone know if the TRD Pro suspension on a 3rd gen is better than a level 1 or level 2 kit Fox lift from Headstrong?

    Level one yes but I would just buy a used set of TRD Pro for about $1k-$1200 unless you go stage 4

    For 1200 you can buy 2.5s front and 2.0 with resi rear. I would do that over a stock pro kit. There’s nothing wrong with the Pro shocks but why not have more adjustability?

    Okay gotcha. I was thinking about getting the level one kit from Headstrong soon because I don't offroad much and just wanted about 2 inches of lift and a softer ride and that kit was cheaper than a used.

    That kit on Headstrong as 1500. And I don't think I would need a resi since I do little to no offroading.

    Buy a used set of trd pro, better yet go to a dealership and test drive a trd pro. I really did enjoy the stock pro shocks but obviously stage 4 is what I ended up with since I wanted to raise it 3 inches and I plan to off-road more.

    No problem, you took care of me on a few things, I was more than happy with pricing and service.

    Anyone with DSC resis on the front have issues getting the resi to line up with the bracket? It felt like I really had to bend the hose and force it to go into the clamps. It’s in but a little crooked and just seems super tight. I also bent the bracket out because it was very close to a mount on the frame.

    My 2.5 non resi extended coilovers came with a rectangle spacer and 4 large round spacers. The rectangle ones are the swaybar drop spacers, what are the other ones for?

    No issue. Considering the size of the hoses and the angle you're putting them in, they're going to be a bit stiff. No worries though.
