    Hello all my first post here, I have owned quite a few trucks this is my first Lifted truck. It's a 2013 Tundra Double Cab with a fabtech basic 6" lift so it has the stock coilovers with the extention or whatever you call them. I just picked this truck up used because it only has 34k on it and got a decent deal for what it has done to it. My question is right now it has 3" spacer blocks on the rear and I want to do 2 things to complete my truck. 1. Add full length coilovers and was thinking about the Vertex because price $1,100 and they are adjustable. 2. I want to do new spring packs in the rear to get rid of the blocks. I am not a lifted truck expert so any thoughts on what coilovers and why, if the Vertex are good or best bang for the buck? And what leaf spring pack would be best Skyjackers were one option I was looking at and the second was the icon but not sure if they are meant to lift a truck or account for bed weight? Thanks in advance for any thoughts and help.63D52F9D-D65B-4677-A3CA-750CBF0F5A8A.jpg27D1EF90-F208-42D2-A0F5-73D58109E6CE.jpg897DD6CE-EDB5-4364-B2AE-89A74B28020C.jpg

    Nice truck! Great score with only 34k on it. I’m no expert either, but if you’re more specific with what you want for lift height and how you use your truck (off road,tow,just for street) people will be able to help more. Search the suspension section and start reading. Every option under the sun is in there. Here’s a leaf thread.

    Thanks for the help, I will mostly use the truck for street, a little off road, and for work. Honestly the coil extention just bother me more than anything and the springs I am just thinking again blocks bother me and figuring that it will ride better without them.

    Yeah, most people keep it 2-3” in front with adjustable coilovers and either a leaf pack or shackles and new shocks for rear. Most popular for economy is Toytec and Billstein. Fox and King for better ride and more $$. There’s many others as well and everything in between.
    Decide on budget, then double it and look at options. :rofl::hattip:
