    Long travel
    Hey everyone, My truck is currently long travel in the front. Im planning on going spring under this next fall and im slowly starting to collect parts and knowledge.

    My plan is to run F67 leafs, 12" TC Shackles, Tundra axle, small bed cage as well as boxed frame with supports and a full-size spare.

    My truck currently weighs 3850lb with me inside of it(thinking it will be just around 4000-4100 when finished). I have kings in the front and would like to match them in the rear. I've been told the bypass tubes on a 2.5 PS 16" triple bypass are the smallest on the market, and the tube layout is not optimal for proper damping. The tube diameter is larger on the race series shocks, and I'm curious if they are worth the extra cash. I would love to learn to tune the shocks myself, but I am looking for a good starting point. I live in washington, where im not always smashing whoops and jumps. This is also my daily driver. i was thinking at starting out at around 12C/8R.

    I would love any advice anyone has on general setup as well as shock tuning! Photo of my truck below. Thanks everyone:thumbsup:IMG_5173.jpg
