    I'm looking to do the same as OP, and I'm only concerned how the Fox CO ride on the road. Are they very stiff or still compliant kind of like the stock suspension? I don't want to feel like I'm riding in a lowered Civic LOL

    I am not a pro but perhaps having the stock a-arms are holding you back. Might be good to call and speak to Camburg or another co. thats makes and sells them.

    I had these on my 06 and they are OK. I actually liked the Toytec Ultimate kit I had on my 03 4Runner better. I do not rock climb or do any extreme wheeling so these looked perfect and I did like the way they made my truck sit. However, they seemed a little soft on cornering and I didn't notice a huge difference when I had them installed from stock. Recently I had them removed so I can sell them and go a different route and when I picked it back up with stock suspension, I again did not notice a huge difference. They will be for sale soon on here if you decide to go that way. They maybe have 12K on them (a little over a year installed).

    I was also looking at these for my 13 DCSB TRD OR. But what I am not liking is that fox says these are adjustable from 0-2" it also states that they are preset at 2" (via all pro off road) to lift or level your truck ... hmmmm yes ok but that means they are maxed out from the factory. Seems a little backwards that they are set to there max lift right out of the box !?!?!?!!? I would suspect that they would ride bouncy with that much preload on the spring.

    Thinking of going with the FOX 2.5 non-resi CO (adjustable from 0-3") up front with all pro or light racing UCA's
    and rear 2.0 Fox with icon 3-leaf AAL. looking for a 2-2.5 " overall lift with best ride quality.....thoughts?

    I believe it's been said the 0-2" is a misprint and you can get 3" from them. But, if you looking to go up 2.5" I would think the 2.5 setup would be better. I'm looking at the 2.0 because all I want and need is to level the truck.

    I have mine set at 3", at first they were a little stiff. Now with 10K on them, they are great. Truck rides very smooth, trips to Pismo, Lake Tahoe, Mojave Desert. Never have given me any problems, well worth the money.
