    Bringing this back to life. Does anyone have reviews/experience with their 2.5 kit?

    Loving mine. Had them for about 12000 miles so far. I did not get reservoirs with my setup since I didn't think I needed them. You can add them later on if you want.

    Did it for the increased weight from full steel bumper with winch and light bar plus wanted 35s. Suspension is great for the road and my offroad needs.

    Do you think it's more plush or stiffer than stock?

    For sure stiffer, but to me in a good way. I drive aggressively on road and the truck feels planted even at higher speeds. Nose dive is greatly reduced and the bumps are fine to me. Note that I'm also on LT-C 35s so maybe some of the comfort could be coming from larger tires.

    Springs from Toytec I believe are 700lbs spring rate, so it's significantly more stiff than stock but then again, my truck is also heavier. It has sliders, full steel bumper with winch + light bar, full gobi stealth rack, and sound deadening on floors and doors. With that weight the Toytecs are ideal, and also helps with the feel of the 700lb spring rate.

    Off road, wash boards feel smoother that the OEM Fox, and more stable. I'm happy with my purchase as it was recommended to me as a lower maintenance and with quieter suspension than the obvious competitors.

    The other recommendation was the Dobinson MRRs which are in the similar area of performance/comfort. Flipped a coin and chose the Toytec and have been happy so far.
