SOS Performance Lowering Kit

Some questions for those who have used this kit to lower a 3rd gen:

1. Did you do the install yourself?

Assuming yes to #1:

2. Is the instruction manual satisfactory?

3. Is the install straightforward if one has the listed tools and is generally a DIY'er?

Assuming no to #1:

4. Who did you get to do the job and how much (or how many man hours) did they charge?

Other:

5. Are you satisfied with your Taco ride, load carrying capacity, etc. since the install?

6. Any "cons" one considering this kit should be aware of?

Thanks.

 

on this

just ordered mine about 10 minutes ago!! gonna go on a blazing blue dc with 20's.

 

also say the ride is better. wtf im game.

 

I’ve had the sos performance 2/3.5 kit on my truck for about 3 months now. I installed with help. 2 people took a few hours. Handles well. I don’t tow much more than a pool trailer. There hasn’t really been any cons. I have the trd pro exhaust and you have to move the hanger closest to the rear of the truck

 

Looks great. Thanks for the report.

Did you need any special jack(s)?

 

I was in a shop with a lift. Jack stands would work but definitely would be a tight work space.

 

Good to know. Thanks again.

 

No worries. Give me a shout if ya need anything

 

Just did the back of mine. sos instructions are poorly done. pictures are terrible, just not enough details. Fl chopdero helped me with some great pics. well heres mine with just the rear done so far. pics to come. they are on my phone.

 

front is done!! yes!

 

I love the look.

How did you lift it to do the job?

 

jack and stands

 

also watch vids. helps bigtime

 

Turned out good man. I dig it.

 

I'm considering this as well, but have one big question, and a small one. If you are dropping it, how much suspension travel are you losing?
