    Good. I have a bit of lean now. Probably need to upgrade my rear blocks for the time being until I get new leaf packs. The ride is a little more stiff. I dont mind tho.

    Received a tracking # yesterday for the 6112s I ordered back in November 2020. So hopefully that's an indication the supply issue is improving.

    They are pretty stiff. I dont mind. I rub even more than before. Trimming is needed for sure. I have Deaver springs coming for my truck.

    Define stiff. Does it ride rough like my current suspension?

    That's pretty bad. The shocks just aren't super plush on the #5 setting. It feels strong to me but able to handle bad roads without feeling like the whole truck is going to fall apart. Utah has so pretty bad roads, as any state does for that matter. For your truck is should be a big upgrade. What is on it currently?

    3rd Gen TRD Off Road suspension. What really contributes to my horrible ride are the E load KO2’s.

    I K02s as well but I'm not sure what load rating they are. I used to run mine at 40 psi but I found that 35 feels a lot better. I'm also running 33s. What size are you running?
