    Sounds like a pretty good deal.....only a few hundred more than the 6112/5160's.

    Looking on your site and curious. It seems like most of your kits are for higher lifts so include control arms, AAL, etc. I'm mostly just interested in improving my ride quality and a minor level of +0.75" front and 0" in the rear. I think at most I'd do +1.5" front and +1" rear but probably won't even do that.

    What would you recommend for someone looking for the smoothest/supple ride and very minimal lift? Also approximate cost? My stock 2022 SR DC 4x4 truck now rides jittery. All the minor imperfections in the road can be felt, which resonates in the seat and all over the truck. Bigger hits like speed bumps, rail road tracks and handling around corners feels much better and isn't overly harsh or anything. No big complaints in those areas. It's mostly the finer vibrations that are transmitted through the shocks to the truck that I'd like to eliminate. Feel free to PM me.

    what you describe was exactly the ride I was looking for. I didn't want to lift (my setup is +.05" front and I kept the stock rear leafs)

    I see you're in Truckee, I actually have a place there and the Taco is the vehicle I use up there the most. Next time I head up, i'll send you a pm if you want to check out the ride on the Fox 2.0s.

    I just purchased a similar kit (non res 2.0 rears), would you mind sharing a picture of your truck? Any adjustments on the coilovers or did you install them straight out of the box? Thanks!

    I asked the shop to install them at stock height (I got the measurements from fox on how much preload to take out) but they installed them out of the box and measured 1/2" lift, they said it should settle and sag close to stock height, so I left them as is. To adjust, the whole assembly would need to be removed and the truck aligned again.

    I originally wanted no lift, but happy with the outcome. The truck drives great and the alignment is perfect.

    It looks great. Yeah, that's a generous offer for a ride. That'd be great. I'll PM you my cell number. I've measured my stock truck with the rear being 0.75". It'd be nice to level it. Tempting to go a bit more but I don't want to get into further issues with ride quality, needing an ECGS bushing or making my 265s look tiny!

    Thanks! Love the stance on your truck, this is exactly what I'm looking for. Can't wait to get mine installed now.
