    So...got a 16 Tacoma 4x4 SR5. Not necessarily looking for a lift(unless it gives me what I want). But I really miss how "plush" my FJ cruiser felt bombing down dirt rds. I usually have a dirt bike in the back and have to drive a long way down dirt rds for miles and miles. Maybe its just the fact that the weight isnt distributed like the FJ but I just feel like I am bouncing all over the dang place. Would quality shocks fix this or is it a combination of several things or is it just a fact of life with a truck so light weight in the back?

    Yes. Just find a guy with an OR who upgraded to professional shocks and he’ll likely sell you the OR suspension for a good price. It’s made for exactly the situation you are describing.

    Or go full whammy...
