    Exactly as stated.
    I was able to get the front 2.5 resi's with adjusters and the rear 2.0 resi's with adjusters for less than $2000 shipped to my door... Fantastic deal.

    Cheers

    Max droop with the truck on a jack is not representative of actual droop available when the wheels are planted and the truck is moving. It’s close, but there is no way that your front end can get that much travel with both wheels on the ground for many reasons, the primary reasons being friction between the tires and the road, and lack rebound force (bump) available in your springs.

    I'm about to have a friend swap over 14'' 650 springs over onto Fox 2.5 dsc....any rule of thumb on the measurement to get a 2 - 2.25in lift? Contacted Fox, but haven't heard back in a few days.

    I didn't link anything. That's part of the TW algorithm with Amazon and it's not. The picture is not correct. The adjustable is indicated by a -06- in the middle of the part #.

    I ended up fully closed on HS and 1 click from full open on LS for now. The extra caster I added to clear the 275 really has a negative effect on everything.

    I did the CMC last week and am having the truck realigned on Saturday.

    Also picking up a spring compressor tomorrow to mount in my shop so I can experiment with different spring rates.

    That’s what I run when I’m away from home. The streets here are terrible and full of potholes and raised edges from salt and snow plows. If I don’t have the HS dialed all the way up it is a miserable ride.

    I tried that too. Adding just a few clicks low speed makes the ride suck because then the small bumps are harsh also.

    Hello everyone, this is my first post and first question. Boom...case of beer! Anyways, I have the Fox 2.5’s in all four corners of my 19 TRD OR and was wondering if I can spin the collar enough to gain another 3/4 - 1in above how they came from the box. Will this cause excessive preload on the spring of cause bad angles for the CV joints? I literally read about 45 pages of this thread and the answers seem to be there, but there’s also A LOT of contradictory. I’m going to put it out there and acknowledge my ignorance with this hobby/lifestyle and I’m glad there’s communities out there like this to get some solid answers.

    General consensus is that you can have about 27 threads exposed with the stock 600# coils. 27 driver and 24 passenger for taco lean.

    Why don't you take a measurement for reference Instead of making everyone count threads?

    If you have the extended versions in the front you can lift them up to 21" from the top of the top hat to center of lower bolt.
    You may or may not need longer and/or stiffer springs to accomplish that without running the springs to coil bind.

    Here is some info to help you confirm the springs are ok (or not):
