    Ok, I have a 2015 Tundra and I let Toyota do a 3" 1" OR 3" and 2" leveling kit, whatever the standard one is here that Toyota will do. Then I later added 305/55/20 tires, looks awesome, sits up like a F-250, love it. Been on this leveling kit for about a year now. Want to talk possible suspension options for my current setup. I just feel I should have a better ride when I go off road. This is a 4 wheel drive that is made to go off road. I don't do mud riding or anything, but I do go off road regularly for hunting and I really feel I should have a smoother ride. Help??

    There's plenty of suspension options out there. What's your budget?

    I'm in the same boat. Want to do the 3-1 level and my stock platinum shocks are junk. Not sure what is even on there for stock set up on a 2014 platinum? Are they adjustable? I need new tires are well, but wife and I are not on same page...hell were probably not even reading the same book! :homer: Doh!

    That's what happens when you get married. You read the truck book, your wife reads the shoe book LOL

    I'm about to get the toytec BOSS pretty soon. Adjustable from stock to 3.5" and from what I read, one of the best suspensions for highway and off-road applications (not jumping ramps and that crap). Runs about 1200 for just the front and back plus 1" blocks, 1-1.5" shackles or add a leaf

    A hardy one is OME (old man emu) but according to some people is more for off reading and can be kind of stiff on the highway, also non adjustable at 3" of lift

    Kings and foxes are great suspensions but are pretty pricey.

    The Toytec Boss is probably the best of both worlds. Well priced and great riding, adjustable shocks. I will be getting them on my next tundy.

    My fox 2.5s soak up everything the trails throw at them. Been off-road quite a bit this last month hunting it's a solid set up but of course comes with the price tag.
