    Recently ordered the Falcon shocks leveling system. Will provide 2 inches up front. Stock height in rear. To keep TSS system happy I’m going with CB shackles in rear for a little rake.

    My question is +1 or +2? These Falcon rear shocks are same length as the stocks. Can I use the +2 (1.25 in) without issues?

    I am running them with the OME rear leaf back and Coachbuilder +1 shackles. I am having zero issues with them. I use the truck as a daily driver plus for towing and hunting.

    I don't have these yet but will be getting them soon.

    I was wondering the same thing so I called Falcon and asked that question about the +2 shackles (1.25" lift). They said you would probably be ok with that, but that would be the max you would want to go for rear lift.

    For reference the compressed and extended length on the falcon shocks are the same as the OME shocks

    Nothing better then "you would probably be ok with that" answer. Really tells a customer we know literally nothing about the product were selling. I have watched a million of their videos and was 100% sold on buying the complete setup until I emailed twice in the last two months with the exact same question. NO ANSWER. Hey Falcon, if your sitting around the boardroom wondering why Bilstein still outsells you 1000 to 1 maybe its because your customer service makes walmart look good.

    You do know that Faclon is an off shoot of Teraflex, right? They are primarily a jeep aftermarket company, so they aren't going to be worried about a few toyota guys that don't buy their stuff.

    Did the OME rear leaf pack make a big improvement for towing/driving?
