    Anyone have ideas for suspension mods to soften up the ride? Mamma doesn’t like bouncing around.

    Most like Bilstein 5100, or 6112 and 5160's if you want to level the truck. Hear good things.
    I have TRD Pro suspension I really like it. But probably not worth the aftermarket cost. Or blow some coin and get a pair of ADS, Kings, or Fox. Mama may not like the price tag of those.

    Find a good progressive shock. It’s gonna cost you. But from what I hear progressive is nice and soft.

    There’s very little info. on these shocks anywhere, if fact, most Toyota websites have these incorrectly labeled as 2WD only. I’d be curious too if they’re just 4600’s with a different paint scheme.
