    I’m looking at 2.0s front and rear.

    Used to, way back, before they disappeared and before the buyout. They were great, can’t speak on the new stuff.

    Most run fox, king, icon or ADS. Any reason you want 2.0s in the front?

    That’s what I’m running, 2.5 extended travel front with DSC and 2.0 in the rear with clickers as well. Love the ride both on and off-road.

    2.0 for my purposes will do just fine, i don’t need much.
    i’m actually leaning towards the 2.0 toytec boss’. ( threaded eibach)

    SAWs are still good quality shocks, from what I hear they're customer service took a hit with the buyout but they're still quality and comparable to the other players in the game (King, Fox, Icon, ADS etc.)...none of which are known to exactly have outstanding customer service anyway.

    They're a popular brand on other applications but just never got as hot with the Tacoma community as some others...those I've known that have/had them though have loved them
