    Hi there, I have been researching on here for several days now. I am looking to confirm some mods for the desirable goal I'm shooting to achieve. So, my goal... add some mutually GOOD on and offroad suspension lift to give more clearance to fit not-so-wide 285s.

    What I am about ready to pull the trigger on:

    Red 600lb front coils
    Toytec Boss system w/ front diff drop,
    toytec aal (or would I be better off w/ dakar pack or toytec progressive aal?),
    toytec boss remote reservoir 2.0 rear shocks,
    rear bump stop spacers,
    total chaos UCA
    https://toyteclifts.3dcartstores.com/mobile/Boss-Suspension-System-for-05-Tacoma_p_15.html

    Would the above be effective both on and offroad, and allow not-so-wide 285s with minimal to no trimming?

    Also, what would the biggest difference be between this setup as opposed to the King and Fox 3" suspension kits aside from quality? I do appreciate any advice.

    You have a good setup going on! The difference between the 2.0 Boss (the ones you're looking at) and say, Kings, is that the Kings are fully rebuildable. The Boss 2.5's are fully rebuildable as well. The 2.0's are good for on and offroad while the Boss 2.5 is good if you do a lot of offroading.

    I'm not sure on the 285s because I have a first gen haha.

    If you're still unsure I'd definitely give Toytec a call. Their guys there are awesome and they can help you get into the exact setup that fits your needs.
