    My Tundra is going to need some new shocks pretty soon and I do want to upgrade from the factory shocks, that said, I don't want any additional lift to my Tundra. Do you have any recommendations on shocks that will provide a good ride on the road, and have decent articulation off road without any additional lift to the truck? Thanks again for your help, I very much appreciate any knowledge you volunteer

    I just went back to a Bilstein 4600. Truck rides like a caddy again.

    Check out 6112 as well. If you don't mind 3/4" lift, these are great!!!

    Weren't the 4600's original equipment on some Tundras?

    Yes...kinda. These are Bilsteins, but valved to Toyota specs, if I understand that correctly.

    you can also usually find Them for sale on here usually with not a lot of use since guys like upgrading to kings, fox’s, etc. seems about every few weeks or so there’s a set.

    You can definitely get a Fox or King shock package with zero additional lift, if the budget will allow it. They are adjustable, so later down the line you could always adjust them to get more of a level stance. Ride quality will be amazing when custom valved for your trucks weight/driving style.
