I posted last week about some torque steer and CV issues due to the OME lift I had put on the truck (has the 860s ie 2.5" now).
Have new 865s (1.5") and am planning to put them on the truck this weekend and bring down the front some more to get things under control and add more droop.
Currently, the ride is 'sporty' or 'harsh' depending upon who you are. Some of this is most assuredly due to the extra spring rate of the OME coils and TBs. But I'm wondering how much is due to the Nitro Sport shocks?
I'm contemplating taking the Nitro Sport shocks off and replacing with OEM Toyota shocks until I get some more weight on the vehicle in the form of bumpers, etc. I realize I'll lose a little shock travel but the trade-off for a cushier ride over bumps would be a win due to the terrible state of roads in California. Vehicle is mostly on-road right now with light off-road.
What do you guys think? Anyone run a set-up like that?
Thanks in advance...
