    Check My Sig.
    What was your entire email to them? They might not be wrong. A two tube bypass will give you additional bottom out control and a catch zone but the C/O will be provide the primary damping control. At least you now have multiple options to try.

    Man I called king a while back, and they were really helpful. I had the same question. Even though I had fox they still helped me.

    I called fox and they said they my shocks were built for a TC set up and they told me to call them to check. Fox really Couldn’t tell me anything. They have always been good on customer service, just didn’t know what the valving was. I called TC and they said they are good to go as is and valving is accounted for. They do ride a little harder compared to the coil-over only.

    once I get my winch I’m send them off to accutune to be tuned to my vehicle. The off road control is outstanding. The vehicle feels planted and controlled. I got up 30-60 mph on a road in texas. I know it does not compare to the shit I Cali but the dirt road had woops and washboards, ruts and cracks. I wish I took more time dial the in, but I didn’t wanna get shot at by the property owner (private property).

    I just did 40 on a flat gravel road, but then again it was flat, and I wasnt aiming for the ruts. I can post a video if you really want it.

    I get turned off by Accutune. Im sure theyre a good company, but when I reached out to them on IG or email, they turned me down. Which is why I continue to deal with Downsouth Motorsports. I asked Accutune about the valve stacks, and they said I could send them my coilovers, but they wont sell me the components of their "tuned" shocks, meaning they just want to do all of the tuning themselves. For me, that means a month or so of downtime. Im fine with that, not offended at all. Sometimes being on east coast is bad.. hah! But then I turn to Downsouth, and Sonny the owner, responds to my IG inquiries on a Sunday evening! I wasnt expecting that, and Id like to give them more of my business if I can.

    That’s how accutune does business. Worth it if you can do it. I get your situation and I think that’s most people.

    I have some pro comp coil-overs I can toss on there when I work on mine. If you were nearby I’d lend them to you to keep your truck moving.

    I believe you. I don’t push my truck too hard, don’t wanna wreck it.

    by the way what front bump and spacer size you got?

    I dont push my truck hard that much anymore. Few years ago, every weekend at parks, now i camp and enjoy the scenery. Yes, bypasses are way overkill, but the truck is still my main hobby, and it will get the best.

    Have Wheelers Superbumps and the TC spacer that came with the LCAs

    Damn. I didn’t get any with my LCAs.

    I know they make spacers just need to find the size

    Wife got the goods for her 4runner yesterday.

    7A0CCA76-8F9F-4ED3-ADFE-6A5C0EF38DE7.jpg

    And her welds on the spindle gussets weren’t half bad. Made her do all welds on the back side. 82E0E176-DA08-46F5-AE12-0F40AC2937AF.jpg

    I am in the first test fit. Nothing was welded or tightened. I have some rubbing, and im not at full lock. I think a 1/2 or 3/4" spacer would help? See above picture

    Wheel/tire specs: 16x8, -25mm offset/3.5BS, 315/75/16

    Gotcha. I think I had some rubbing on mine as well. 4.5 BS on my rims (don't remember the rest of the specs now) the only thing that remedied my rubbing because I knew it was going to happen anyways was 2" Bora spacers.
