    I didn’t ask for specifics but the Tacoma kits have options for 2.5 and 3. I’m not sure which is the new one but it’s a coil. I checked my order and the coil itself is not listed. I’ll see which one I get Thursday or Friday. Both are listed as performance 0-110 lbs. Still no options for prebuilt kits.

    That’s interesting. Wonder what they changed?

    Did you ever get your kit? If so what kinda lift did you get and at what setting?

    I’m not sure, I should have asked more questions. I’m not sure which are the new coils, the 2.5 or 3”. I might go back and ask later. Not that it’ll matter much for me at this point, mines already in route and 3” on the Tacoma might be a little too much. Even more so since I don’t have UCAs yet. Unless it’s the smaller coil that are newer, since some got 3 or higher. Then, it’s good they can be adjusted.

    Ahh, I only got the stage 1, I wanted a different set of UCAs. I plan on the JBA (for now) and will paint them green to match the coils.

    My first guess is they re-branded the "Comfort" coils as the "2.5 inch Performance," since the Comfort option no longer appears in the lineup.

    I kinda wish I had gone with the comfort coils over the performance, since I'm still having some topping out issues. The ride is great over bumps, but when I encounter a small depression (like a recessed manhole cover), the truck feels like it just falls into the hole. Very jarring.

    That would make sense. Not sounding good about falling into the hole but I guess I’ll see soon enough. MD and PA are known for pot holes. Just need tires big enough not to go down lol.
    I posted a while back about the compress and extension of the shocks and think they were close in range to Kings and Foxs (not comparing them in any other way). I had gotten that from Chris at IM and from what someone posted in the suspension thread. Not sure if that’s the reason.

    Good luck! I’ll be (hopefully) putting mine on this weekend. I’ll be documenting it with pics, measurements and such. I’ll probably make a new thread for it. Then I can add a review of the ride as well.

    Awesome brother! Keep us posted and I will certainly keep y’all posted on my experience as well was going for the Bilstein 6112/5160 but this was more budget friendly!

    I sure will. Really looking forward to this. I had a spacer lift on an older Tacoma I owner so I’m excited to see how a real suspension does. I’ll share any notes as well. Are you building your coils on the truck as well?

    I don’t. Lol. Maybe what it’s set to if you get it pre assembled?

    Lol, it’s .5... I’m not really sure. The thing is, when I looked yesterday they were sold out of the preassembled kits so I’m not sure how the same coil could be 2.5 or 3.0 inch. Makes sense if it is assembled.

    I honestly thought at first it was the coil diameter (similar to shocks) but that wasn’t the case. Clearly the springs are more than 2.5-3” long so...

    All I know is I’m expecting everything on Thursday and Friday, I have all of the tools and materials I need to do that and the ECGS bushing. Keeping fingers crossed everything goes well.
    I do have concerns about one part. Since the shocks don’t have positive pressure, I have to not waste time from the point I extend them to when I start screwing the nut on top. I’m fully expecting, with my luck for the shock to collapse while I’m trying to get it in it’s home and not get the nut on lol.
