    No affiliation with the company. I'm looking for an upgraded suspension from the stock version on my 2011 Base 4x4

    Is this a quote from the ad that you saw? May want to put some quote marks around it to eliminate confusion, so people don't think you're promoting their products.

    Cool deal, was just curious.​

    I'd definitely look into getting new coils with your lift.
