    Hey everyone, I’m trying to decide on what suspension I should get for my truck. I daily drive my truck but want to start doing more off-roading / camping. I would mainly be doing trails and going to Big Bear / Arrowhead. I don’t do any high speed off-roading and want something that will be reliable yet somewhat capable as well. So far, I’ve narrowed it down to 3 options: Bilstein 6112/5160s, King 2.5’s with adjusters, or Fox 2.5 performance elite series with DSCs. What do you guys think?

    for rear i would go deavers for leafs. i have dakars but recently helped a friend install deavers expedition. there is no comparison between these springs. the deavers are so much better and heavy duty over the dakars. well worth the price difference in my opinion.
