What is your suspension set-up? Looking for ideas for a 2015 4x4 Crewmax that will live in the southwest, so needs to be snow, mud and desert capable as priorities. Not looking for extreme trail or rock-crawler status but don't want a monster truck style 12" lift and 40's either; not that there is anything wrong with that either.

A winch and on-board air will be added to maximize the set-up and avoid the need for weekend only wheels, etc. This will be a daily driver in Vegas (for now) when not out having fun.

Detail in sig... Fantastic setup that can handle plenty of abuse, but won't break the bank.

theres over 100pages of info so ill summarize:
1. pick a coilover (fox king icon ads) based on color you like
1a. OME coilover is better if you plan to see a lot of snow and salt.

2. Pick a UCA (total chaos, prg, LR, Icon) to get your alignment
right

3. use shackles in the rear for lift, avoid blocks, @Coachbuilder on these forums makes the best product, but there are cheaper routes.

4. pick rear shock: 2.5 rem. res if you like to go fast in LV desert, 2.0 smooth body if going slower is more your style or cost is an issue

5. wheel offset less then 8mm will most likely rub your body mount with 35's so pick a higher offset, or do the body mount chop

6. deaver leaf springs for the rear to make the ride great, but will reduce your hauling capacity. leave them stock or Alcan can make you a custom leaf pack thats progressive and can haul weight, their prices have been better then deaver from what i hear.

7. tires do research, most people seem to run 295/70R18(34.5) or 315/70/r17(34.5in) to basically get as close to 35s as possible with a little more room....that said plenty of people run 35/12.50R17-18-20 with success

8. enjoy a bad ass truck

Mid travel stage 1 is the ticket. (2.5 coilover w/ resi, 2.5 rear shocks w/ resi, TC UCA, Deaver k37 leafs and CB shackles)
itll be able to handle all your needs and some.
X2 for the mid travel thread.
