    I like the stock look better. Why the change?
    How does the light output compare?

    Do you get any popping or clunking with your fox's up front? I barely put any pre load on them from where they were set originally and they are not happy..

    They were used but, re built from fox. I actually had to turn them down to 3" of thread showing from 2.5" where they were sitting. Would you mind measuring yours if you get a chance? Basically I need this measurement..

    Well not so good...between Blacktacoma23 and Evenflow's I really dont have a choice but to run my truck at 6" or maybe squeeze 6.5". Kinda sucks because 7.5" is perfectly level with the rear and I gain my clearance back at the cross member. Basically 18" coils wont fix my problem of the clunk. It is indeed the coilover itself maxed out. Dont tell anybody..I may stuff these in there for now :p

    Haha nice! Ya that's what I would have to guess is just to much compression from the preload to begin with! I'm getting the 18s for just the smoother ride since no preload. If u want to keep that bracket clearance just go up to 37s like blacktacoma23 did!!!

    Every few bucks saved is worth it to me! Just cancelled my one order and about to place it now.

    Love the flags facing forward. Need to get one for my back window from yotamafia. Supposedly they donate a percentage to WWP

    Very nice sir! U-bolt flip kit and some squishy bump stops and you'll be set up in the rear!
