    Hello All,

    Me and my buddy was browsing through Toytec website (since we are from CO) looking for 2.5in shock lift options with remote reservoir for his 2021. We thought of sharing what we found so far so that it might help someone.

    If you like to share your detail lift kit (like what front coil over, what rear shock and spring, what UCA, etc..) please feel free to share so it will help others.

    Hope this helps..:cheers:

    I have the Bilstein 5100's front & rear now - they will be removed once my King 2.5 remote reservoir's are built & show up.
    Check out Accutune website as they will build the shock for your needs
    I'd stay clear of the Toytec Boss - living here in Colorado where they have their shop, I've seen nothing but issues with them

    I see.. I didn't knew Toytec Boss has issues. My buddy was thinking about it due to easy availability.

    They're a nice looking shock, but they changed who makes them for them about a year ago & the quality of the product has deminished

    That's pretty interesting info for KDSS. (Good thing my buddy does not have KDSS and they haven't mention any restriction for non KDSS).

    I just got installed the Radflo Stage 3 Lift Kit, purchased from YotaMafia. Comes with 2.5 Adjustable Extended Front and Rear shocks with remote reservoirs, Total Chaos UCAs, and 3” ARB Rear Springs. I purchased Durobumps front and rear as well. Non-KDSS

    Was really thinking on going with Kings, but did a lot of research and read a lot of great reviews on Radflo. Their customer service is outstanding.

    Next, I am deciding on upgrading the stock LCAs to the Total Chaos. Definitely have your buddy check out Radflo.

    My vote would be Kings or Radflo!!

    So many seem to love Radflo. Have to see if they are available in CO (buy + install + maintenance -like rebuild when they are old).

    Hit up Runnin4Tacos in Commence City - they might be able to assist with either or both (buy & install)

    Also, I would price out some ADS coilovers/shocks. They make a quality product and use really durable components.

    To much


    There are so many options out there to make the mind go numb, here at Toytec lifts we strive to offer the best option for the vehicle, not every vehicle that we build is Toytec equipped. We offer OME, ICON, KING, etc, all under one roof to insure the customer doesn’t feel cornered into purchasing one thing. We take time to show you the ins and outs of not only our product, but also the facility to see what we have and what we offer.

    it is a real bummer to hear about @jmc22 first hand experience with us. That is not at all what we offer or conduct here.
    If you wouldn’t mind, please shooting me a pm on here, or an email at Davidm@toyteclifts.com and I can help assist in figuring out what went wrong and what we can improve on. The last we want is our locals to not feel confident in us and our team to help assist in outfitting their rigs.
