    After installing 295/70/18 tires & bfd wheels, I notice my truck runs a little bumpy on the highway, I don’t feel it much on the small roads but it’s not a smooth ride like when it had the stock tires & TRD Pro wheels, I herd that upgraded shackles can help stop the car from that bumpy ride ??
    Or what can I do to help stop the bumpy ride,? Thanks

    RAS, Roadmaster Active Suspension helped smooth mine out. What air pressure are you running?

    Your firmer/harder ride is due to the fact that you moved from the stock standard load tires, to E load tires. Completely normal and part of the price you pay when installing larger tires on a Tundra. What are you running for air pressure in the 295s?

    Coachbuilder shackles most certainly cut down on bed bounce tremendously.
    Aside from that they are an absolute work of art!!

    That’s what I herd, which one of the coachbuilder shackles would I need if I want to remain stock TRD pro height or maybe just 1” lift in the rear?

    You’ll want the +1 it gives just over a 1/2” of lift in the rear.
    I have the Falcon leveling system which gives the same height as the TRDPro up front.
    The Coachbuilder +1s give a very slight rake which is perfect in my book.

    @Black where did you get the yellow bulbs for the fog lights? Or is that a vinyl overlay? Looks very good
