    Hey all! I'm currently running Toytec 2.0 w/650 springs and I'm pretty happy with them, but looking for the next step, truck is 80% highway the rest is washboard gravel roads and rutted out forest roads with a lot of water bars, at times I think I'm a race driver, LOL! Mainly looking at King or Fox, I like the Fox w/ dual comp adj for the reason of when I am cruising slow they shouldn't be as harsh, I also like the Fox because they come in black & will look better on my truck, King has a huge following & it seems like they're the go to for most, I would also go with the comp adjustable resi, I can option up and get them in black anodize! The plan is to order from Accutune! Anything I'm missing?

    Thanks
    Troy

    Accutune is awesome. I think its just going to more of a personal preference here. Ask accutune what would be best for you. Make sure you get the tundra rear shocks they fit for the tacoma in the rear!!!

    I think you're on the right track. Fox has some amazing products, and their quality is definitely one of the best (if not THE best). You can't go wrong with their products. Happy to answer any specific questions you have on here or give us a ring 424-377-0808

    I just picked up the Fox level 2 kit from Headstrong. Hopefully it gets in before this weekend so I can throw the kit on my Taco. I'll report back once I do so as I have a similar situation with 80% highway and then rough washboard roads.

    If you want a step up from our toytec products we have a 2.5 then we have the big boy King and OME BP51s! They are fully adjustable with 2.5 remote resis and you can control the rebound, compression, and ride height!

    20,000 miles on my foxs and I love mine. They're certainly fast. Just hit them with some film to protect them and they're golden.

    Got the kit all installed today. Super easy and they look great. I haven’t driven it so I don’t know how it rides but it did lift the front 1” and the back .5”.
