    That's why I went with the medium. I drop the adjusters back down to soft and it floats.

    Thats one of the major benefits I see to the DSCs. They may allow you to adjust for weight by using the external clickers. It’s just a theory of mine as I haven’t tried it yet, but it makes sense to me.

    If you’re ever in SD hit me up and we can take my setup out of a ride. It’s not perfect and I’m still working on valving but I have the 2.5s with Dakars.

    Not trying to talk you out of the 2.5s, because you should definitely do 2.5s if your even considering it.

    But I haven't outran my 2.0s with resi in the rear. At first I went this way because I have intentions of relocating the shock mounts and going with an archive garage hanger setup in the rear. But in the interim I've been impressed with how active the rear remains at load.

    I mean they handled golden roads at 20mph faster than posted In areas I had clear vis so there's that.

    The Dakar's are certainly more affordable so I'm still undecided but I'm trying to get more input on the RXT packs.

    Pricing out the RXT pack....
    These are expensive.
    Best quote so far is $700.00 plus $90.00 for shipping.
    At about $ 800 total that is around $300 more then the Dakar's.
    Trying to stay in budget but it's getting tougher..!!

    With this setup I want to run stock OR wheels with 265/75/16 tires.
    Thinking this should work with no rubbing or fit issues...
    Anyone else with this combo..?
