Seems that is exactly on topic!
Plenty of info in this thread on ride quality and characteristics. Why would you want to mix and match shocks?
Not sure on the length as I didn't measure before putting mine in, but with different valving between brands you will have different ride characteristics front to back. I don't think anyone will be able to answer your question about ride vs stock unless they are also running this mismatched combo.
Did you decide on the front? I am thinking Halo 2.0s with the 5165 in rear similar to direction
Looks great. How much preload did you have the coils set to and how much lift did you get out of it? I bought this same kit on their black Friday sale and hope to install this weekend.
I'm going with 295/70R18 Toyo AT III, but after I wear these down some more. Only have 10k miles on them so far.
They came set at 6 turns down, which is how I installed them. I'm right about 2" over stock. Driver's side is 3/4" lower than passenger. Halolift said to let it settle for a week and then I can adjust them to level out the truck left to right.
You'll be happy with those. I have same tire just slightly taller.
I see you too put the little bracket on that control arm and there's no sensor on that side. I figured it's better to have a bolt in the hole than leave it open...
Thanks for the info, I appreciate it. Im gonna tackle the install this weekend and will report back. That’s interesting, I was thinking about this same thing while waiting for the kit wondering if each side was going to need a different preload. Coming from Toyota, some kits would also include a shim to level out driver to passenger side.
lol my RZR 4 seat turbo S sags on driver side. It’s my fat butt doing it I’m sure but I did just get new suspension for it as well to combat that. I’m glad you mentioned that though so I don’t freak myself out when/if I see it.
Exactly
That's really odd. Mine came with roughly 4 inches of preload and I'm 3/8" lower. Unless someone put a 14" spring, the math makes no sense. It does still rude like a 700# spring, though.
I just installed the 2.0s this weekend on a 22 with no other mods. With the red collar turned up to be inline with the shock top (no threads showing) it’s sitting 1-7/8” higher than stock. It left me with 2” of rake, which is what I need to tow my pop up. Not a drastic change, but what I was going for. I’ll see how it settles before taking it to get an alignment on Friday. Also, truck sits even left to right, I know others have stated otherwise.
