Toytec boss aluma 2.5

Looking for anyone who is running this setup with the shackles ?

I had the boss 2.0 on my 2018 and really enjoyed it. Kicking around the idea of putting these Alumas on my 21 platinum.

thanks

 

Had them on my 14 but not with shackles. No complaints on the ride.

 

You want the Coachbuilder Shackles!
They tighten up the rear end so well. They are worth it.

 

Toytec is good stuff, you should have no complaints

 

My buddy did the shackle lift in the rear and his is really soft/saggy.
I did the add a leaf and it is much better. Firmer more responsive ride.

 

I have the 2.5 Alumas up front and the Toytec shackles in the rear along with the Toytec Boss rear shocks with remote resis. Toytec discontinued the remotes and offer the 2.0 rear shock.

 

This is because the stock leafs are mushy. Adding lifted coilovers up front, they always increase the spring rate a little, and usually come with rear shocks. So the new coilovers/shocks are firmer, and yet the leafs are still little mushy. Shackle cant address that, the new rear shocks help but don't firm up the springs. Add a leaf or RAS will firm up the leafs to better match the spring rate on the new coilovers. I had that same experience when I lifted my truck. Adding RAS to the leafs fixed mine and now the front/rear are very well matched and perform really good.

 

Pretty sure the Alumas are made by Elka for Toytec but still great stuff.

 

I happen to have new front 2.5 alumas if interested.

 

Oh do tell us more. What replacements are you going with?

 

I went to Kings 2.5 with remote reservoir.
