Truck is a street queen and won't be seeing any serious offroading. Mild access roads, fields and orchards will be the extent of offroading. Tires will be stock sized mild AT's
I know everyone is basically running bilstein's and are happy for the most part with the biggest things being the bilstein's ride a bit firm for some.
I am looking to gain 1" to 1.5" up front to level the truck a little while keeping some rake. I am mainly looking to upgrade the shocks as the stock ride is very nice and smooth but too smooth. To me the truck kinda wallows on some roads and seems to fall over on its self (the helwig helped this out back).
Everything I read says the Fox ride allot better over the bilstein's drawing me to go that route. I am wondering how the coil overs hold up over time (only a 1 year warranty) as well as how the front with new springs will feel with the factory rear springs.
Basically, I am just wondering if they are worth the $800+ more over the bilstein's for a street truck.
