Rough Country Vertex coilovers???

Going the route I did is more of a cheaper way . Aal are cheap and they did exactly what I needed to do. Im happy with the results. I could have just went and spent $$$$$$$$ on a new leaf pack but I rather not experiment on $500+ leaf packs

 

Yeah I hear that.from all my research it seems alot of leaf companies are nor holding up to what people expect tho .i hear bad reviews on just about every company which makes me nervous.one thing I am worried about tho is getting a aal that doesnt conform well with the rest of the pack .i have no idea how to find out if it will or not before apending money to find out the hard way .archive garage sells one that seems to conform well but they also suggest having 400 lbs in the bed and dsc coilovers for a better ride....dont have that kind of money right now and at most my dauly load is about 250-300..im thinking id like a aal that goes on top of the overload spring to fill ij that gap .if anyone knows of a aal that will fit in that area and conform well id appreciate it .

 

Look up helwig helper springs

 

Crazy, Helwig is a small company about 5 miles away from me.

 

Will the 3.5” work for the 2nd Gen??

 

according to their website, yes 2005 - 2021

Has anyone upgraded the front springs on the 6" lift ? What weight did you choose ? What company did you go with? Right now they are 600lbs springs. I'm seeing if I can find 700lbs springs for the 6" lift .

 

Well boys and girls, I ordered the 3.5” coilovers!

 

First test run with the Vertix.
Little flexy flexy today

 

So what's the verdict on VERTEX‽ Worth it or junk?? What says you??

 

So far few thousand miles with their 6" lift and loving it

 

Supposedly; I've read somewhere, but don't quote me on this, as I've not verified nor researched in depth, but supposedly these Vertex were designed by ex-engineers from Fox. Again, I don't know how true this is, but thought I'd throw it out there not as an FYI, but more as a maybe this could have some truth behind it?‽?
I'll keep a look out for further posts, and keep following any VERTEX threads. Thanks again....

 

That would be interesting. Following

 

I've been meaning to ask.

Are the fronts just built in spacer lifts with compression adjusters ?

 

Can it handle 220lbs bumper and with winch? I love the look and th adjustable stiffness. I would love to use this on my 2nd gen tacoma. I'm ready to buy it but I want to make sure it can handle the weight in the front

 

How long does it take for the fronts to settle after installing the kit I got a little Carolina squat.

 

They are a fully adjustable coil

 

How big is your lift

 

I bought the full 3.5 kit from rough county.

 

My leaf springs are brand new as well I had the recall done maybe a month ago. If it doesn’t sag some I may have to adjust them or put a larger block in the rear.
