    Hey guys, Im new here Just bought my new 2014 dbl cab long box v6. I am looking to put a 3 inch lift on it and have been reading on the forum of different types. I am torn on who to trust as far as shops on installing the lift. I don't want to go the block route because I don't like the limitations. any advice is greatly appreciated! Also too I was told by the service manager that the lift will void my warranty but I argued about the laws with him...Any input on that would be cool also! thanks guys!

    Posting this from another thread since I haven't got a response back, hopefully it'll help you too.

    Question to all you suspension gurus (don't mean to hijack op, but figured this may help you too): I was first leaning towards the icon, given the reputation, but then started reading that they really shine on fast paced desert runs. Most of my off-roading will be done climbing rocks on the trails here in CO with some snow runs in the winter. Should I then be considering OME vs Toytec? If so, I've heard that the Toytec will be better than the OME because the OME gets lift by preloading the spring whereas the Toytec does not. If I got this completely wrong, please forgive and correct me as I'm completely suspension illiterate.
