    I know there is already a few posts about these.

    I'm just having a hard time figuring out which fox setup will be best for me.
    my truck is still my daily driver... but I want to take it overlanding a few times here and there.
    I have a 2015 TRD sport 4door.

    I bought BFG KO2 285/75R16, but obviously need a slight lift to fit these tires.

    I've been trying to educate myself on suspension.. and have been eye balling this set up.
    http://www.offroadshocks.com/tacoma-king-shocks-and-total-chaos-uca-complete-kit-front-and-rear.html.

    However, I've talked to a friend that told me Fox has adjustable coilovers. which I think would be pretty sweet, i.e.: lift it higher for my highway so I can get my mall crawler happiness in.. but then adjust it when I'm ready to do some trail blazing.

    I've found these.. but are these going to fit?

    Tacoma Fox Reservoir Coilovers With Adjuster Front 0-3 Inch Lift Code: 880-06-418

    with
    Tacoma Pre-Runner 2WD Fox Reservoir With Adjuster Rear 3.5-5 Inch Lift
    Code: 985-26-118-PR

    I see the 2WD and get confused. haha..

    HELP!?!? also I found total chaos uppers on Amazon for a cheaper price.

    lol thanks, but its hard to dissect that thread. I know what I want if I were to go King... but I'm curious what the equivalent Fox setup would be. because I like the adjustable aspect of it.

    Any time you make adjustments to your coilovers you will be changing your alignment numbers. If you're talking about getting reservoirs with damping adjustment clickers that's a different story. Just a heads up.
