    I would recommend the the Stage 8 or 9 system for your vehicle. The RXT system was specifically designed to accommodate a heavy static load while maintaining a quality ride. The Stage 9 system will have CDCV front and rear shock to help adjust between the rage of wights you will have in your truck.

    Feel free to give me a call directly and we can go over in details the features about the system and they will met your requirements.

    Thanks, will give you a call for sure, when my work hours allow time. Looking at the Stage 8 vs Stage 9, and of course looking at price - I see the Stage 9 Tubular is only about $50 more than the Stage 6 Billet (what I initially was thinking). If I were to go that route (tubular vs billet) do you think I would be happy with what I described I would be using the truck for, would that work for my situation? Also, what are your thoughts regarding the Hydraulic Bump Stops for my situation? Would I benefit from getting those also, or would that be overkill? I don't mind spending the money for a good setup, but only want to do it once. Also, whatever I spend on the suspension, means less for anything else I am wanting.
    Thank you for your input, it is appreciated.

    One thing I forgot to mention, I am also thinking of possibly getting either a camper shell or a bed rack/cage.

    Our Stage 9 kit is a great well rounded system that will take you vehicle capability to a hole new level. The Stage 9 System with our Hydraulic Bump Stop System is a very popular kit for the customer that wants all the shock they may need. As the saying goes, “It's better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it.” Between the 3 different configurations of the rear RXT Spring system and the 10 Compression Damping setting in the RXT Specific CDCV shock you will have plenty of rage for whatever you throw at it.

    Let me know if you have any questions or if you'd like to go over in more detail.

    Ordered Stage 8 in early February through Toytec (I think). Whitlock Automotive is doing the install and everything is in except the rear suspension and mounting brackets. 20 week estimate on timing for those last pieces, but wanted to see if that’s an extremely conservative estimate/if there’s any way for you to check on those, Adrian.

    Well, It looks like I'm going to have to replace the Icon shocks I currently have on my Tacoma. It already had what I think is a Stage 3 with tubular UCAs on it when I bought it with around 28K miles on it. I'm now over 80K mile and, well it just runs rough; especially when I hit a bump.

    Is it possible to buy just the shocks and coilovers from a Stage 3 kit without the UCAs and Springs?

    Thanks.

    Did you end up going with a New suspension or were you able to rebuild/service the old one?

    Boost, armor, lights, big tires, no savings.
    Does anyone have the collapsed and extended length measurements of the Rear RXT Shock with RR?
    I know it is supposed to have longer travel than most stock location units. Would like the data as well.

    Gracias.

    Edit:
    Best I can find is from SDHQ post-
    14.5" collapsed
    24.75" extended

    Collapsed length is about average, some can collapse further. Extended is definitely on the high side.
