    Received my BOSS 2.0 complete kit last week with SPC UCAs and 1.5 rear blocks (Thank you Jason!).

    Installed today, and I cheated a little using a 2 post lift instead of laying on my back, but my point is. I have been lifting Toyota trucks since the early 90s, this is my first Toytec kit and I have never had an install go so smoothly.

    Kit components and build quality are top notch. I know I could have spent less on other kits, or not used the SPC uppers but I’m positive after installing and driving I would not be nearly as happy!

    The ride is slightly firmer than stock, but not rough. Feels more stable in corners. This is the first time I have done a UCA swap, and I think that is a game changer for ride quality.

    I like the looks of the Aluma rear shocks. I have the Boss with the remote resi that came with my kit but up here in salt world they will eventually rot I am sure.. Wish these were available when I purchased. I dont really need the extra resivior.

    You’re right. They definitely don’t look the same. I’m not sure what setting you used for caster, but I pushed mine as far forward as I could (+3) to help with clearance once I get bigger wheels / tires. I think that’s the difference.

    I run 34's but mine were set in the neutral position and pulled all the way out towards the tires per recommendation from some of the other guys on here that have them.

    I may have to readjust when I put on wheels and tires. Still running stock stuff for now.

    What tire wheel combo are you running? I want to run 295/70/18 with a +20 offset Aftermarket wheel. Trying to get there without much rub or lots of cutting.
