Your truck has a nice stance, without being too aggressive looking.

So far I’m very pleased. I just picked it up from the shop today so I haven’t had a lot of time in the truck to evaluate. My initial thought was that it felt similar to stock, but maybe a little softer up front and a little stiffer in the rear. I did a lot of research and landed on this kit as best for me as it handles road and off-road well. I’m looking to do some basic overlanding more than rock crawls and obstacles. Just want to camp and fish and get away

Truck looks awesome.

Question - kind off topic so feel free to ignore. Notice the BF Goodrich T/A KO2s. I recently picked up a TRD Sport with a so-so set of highway Firestones and am looking to upgrade. I live in Four Corners, so sharp rocks and such are the norm. Did you research the KO2s? Can you recommend?

No worries! I did a good bit of research. My reading led me to decide between nitto grapplers and KO2s. When all said and done, I liked the look of KO2s better and found reviews that sounded more like what I was looking for. I don’t think you can go wrong with either of those, but many folks on this site will surely know more. For me, I am very happy with KO2s.

I am running C load Goodyear Duratracs.. I wheel some and like the tires so far. A little noise,but not too bad. These seem to have a little better review over the KO2’s, that I found, and everyone has an opinion. There are about 3 or 4 tires being thrown around that have a pretty good following and threads you can check out!
The OP has a nice setup! BTW

Lifts kit was $1250 or so. Then KO2s, 285/70/17 were $200 ea or so. Methods were $185 each. Labor and installation were a few hundred additional. An expensive project but something id budgeted for and new was coming

That's my planned useage as well. Camping and fishing remote places. I still want good road manners and like a softer ride. Which springs did u go with. And i'm assuming u went with the medium duty leafs? How did your alignment numbers look without uca's?
