    Are there actual measurements of the stock Bils? I got the 116s, I am going to measure them to see how they conform to the specs.

    Have you already received the rear shocks? I ordered 118's at first. They shipped and cust service helped me return them and swap for the 117's. They also helped me make some changes to my order prior to shipping as well.

    yeah, I just got the 116s. Did you work through Fox or WW? I contacted Fox and they basically admitted that the 116s don't provided the length they claim.

    I worked through ww. They emailed me a return label and shipped me the 117's. They dont wait for your shocks to come in before sending out the replacements. Went super quick.

    Opinions...

    Running the 2.0 setup with back resi's on 2019 TRD OR, install is tomorrow morning. Looking to go about 2.5" lift, leafs in back to level out (also running on 275's). Are upgraded UCA's necessary at this point? Or can I have a little breathing room by leaving stock on and upgrade those later?

    I've got 31's currently but am tempted to upgrade after I install this lift. I think I'm just going with 1-1.5 in the front for a leveling. Make sure you post pics when you do yours!

    To be clear, I have the Fox 2.0s set at 2.5" up front now.

    Leaf pack is Icon RXT stage 3. I carry about 500lbs in the back daily and it still has a slight rake...

    that's my exact setup, lift that I'll have them set it. 2.0's at 2.5" lift. Looks solid! I'll post some pics after my install tomorrow.

    ...had a shop do it :rofl:

    I have a newborn and couldn't get the time to do it myself.

    My understanding of these coilovers is that you want to use a spring compressor since the shock body is aluminum and adjusting them under-load could screw up the threads.

    In case anyone was interested. I received my Fox front 2.0 coilovers last week. Waiting for my rears now. Great buy. Will purchase from again. Been receiving new coupons about every 10 days.
