Looking for some improvement in handling the crappy roads around here and an inch-1.5 inch lift.

How do these perform for you guys? The price seems fair if they improve the truck enough.

I put them on about a month ago and love them! The truck just looks better and I think it rides better also.

How high is it set?

I put some 275/60s on this week and the front wheelwell is a bit filled up but I dont think it needs 2 inches.

How does it handle uneven beat up roads or hitting a railroad track at speed?

I have them on my 07 for about 3 months now and they are nice. I'm thinking of having them tuned a little since they tend to drop out from underneath too quickly going over some drops on the highway due to construction. This is going around 50-55 mph. Anything I go over under that speed the shocks soak it up nicely. I got them from Auto Anything since I found a 22% off coupon online so they were the cheapest place I found. But maybe look at getting them from an off-road shop or website so they can valve them to your needs.

Ah tuning! Yeah I was hoping for not that. Would you say the drop out is worse than stock?

How is the 2015 with this set up?


I really liked the bilsteins on my tundra. Might just keep it simple and go that way.

2"!! I haven't been off road much but going over railroad tracks it's great! I felt the original shocks made the truck jump out a little going over tracks.

With my shocks I think they may be cranked too high so there isn't enough down travel now. When I measured to see how level I was it was exact all the way around. I may try lowering them about 1/2" and see if that helps.

Ok I understand, guess I Will put these on my to buy list. Only want 1.5 inches maybe less. Want it to look a little higher than stock.


I wont be going with a tire any bigger than the 275/60s I put on it. Been there and done all that enough times.
