    I'll try to get some pics this weekend and post. And I did check for clearance issues for a quick sec yesterday evening... At some point the resi mount contacted the axle at full flex. Only slight though. And the lines break in and are totally fine with and S curve. I talked to Fox about it bc of the same concern. You'll have to move the resi up the body at some point broski. Again, will try to get a pic up tomo.

    Definitely, Wheeler's Off-road Super bumps. Can't be beat for the $$. Truck lands smooth jumping all 4 2-3ft off the ground.

    Been slammed, taking a 3-day weekend so should be able to get a pic or two up of the best position of the passenger resi after I adjust it about .25".

    You're catching 2-3 ft of air in this truck on all 4 tires? With a stock rear leaf pack with an AAL and Super bumps?

    Awesome! You'll love them. Noticed you have blocks bud (I had 1" blocks and didn't know what I was missing until after the progressive aal's). Unless you're running tsb springs (more stiff) lose those blocks ASAP. Otherwise, you have a premo setup.

    Thanks! Mine hasn't made contact with the axle since repositioning it. I also only cruise on the beach so I don't flex the rear end much at all. I will say being able to soften up the shocks for the beach is amazing. The ride quality is extremely noticeable on the softest setting.

    I leave mine on the softest setting even when the bed is empty and I'm just commuting.

    Yes sirrrrr. Note my factory springs were solid and I used the 3 leaf progressives. Stay away from the singles unless you keep weight in the bed, they're stiff. Note: I made the jump with a D3 w 6way blade (good and even) and you land on smooth gravel going uphill... The truck stays level as long as you goose the skinny pedal right before takeoff (gotta keep that front end up!).

    Yes to Wheeler's front and rear. Just note, using aal's provides more space but the axel and bump so you'll hit more with blocks (like I use to).

    Awesome about the clearance after repositioning. Heck mane, post a pic for me and the other soon to be happy people haha.

    Quick chime in! Looking to get a Dirt king mid travel kit with the fox 2.0 coils for the front. The kit says 0-2” lift but your guys are saying you can push it up to 3”. The more lift you put out are you getting a stiffer ride? Would it be better to leave them at 0” lift and put a spacer plate on top of the co? Also are you measuring the tread to judge how much lift the coil is giving? Trying to figure out how much your measuring or what your measuring to determine how much your setting. Thanks for all advise!

    I've been questioning the same thing lol. I mean they're made to go to three inches after all, but I'm sure the ride won't be as good as two inches or lower. I want to get the 2.5s with resis set to three and I gotta do a CMC

    Not sure if this has been asked yet but with the 2.0s, does it clear the UCA at full droop? I have 5100s on sr5 springs but i may grab a set of 2.0s and i have a spindle lift with the 5100s set at 0”. It would be nice to save ~$500 not having to buy new UCAs

    @Mully how many turns did you do to get 3" lift on your fox 2.0?

    Don't remember, about an inch. You can see the dirt where it was moved up. Now that I added the Pelfreybilt Bumper it dropped 1/2". These are great shocks, I have over 28K miles on mine with no problems.

    So just that I'm clear before I install. Everyone is saying to turn the coilovers up 3 full turns on the driver side to compensate for the 1/4" taco lean?
