    I have a 2016 SR5 with 150K+ miles. The struts have started to develop a rattle going over any bumpy road (Indiana highways at their finest). Looking to replace with a little upgrade, might as well level it while I’m at it, RIGHT?!

    Wanting to stay around $400ish for a pre-built set of struts, but not opposed to being around $250 and reusing using stock springs for now then upgrading springs when I add weight to the front (winch, bumper, etc).

    So far I have narrowed it down to:

    Bilstein 5100 (obviously on the list)
    Fox Performance 2.0 (stock spring)
    Rough Country N3 (pre-built)
    OME Nitrocharger (stock spring)
    Rancho Quicklift (pre-built)

    Anybody have any input? It would be greatly appreciated. Any good struts I missed or that I should stay away from? At what point do I need to look at UCA upgrade? Was told 3”+ it’s pretty well mandatory.
