    I am considering Radflo 2.5 coilovers. Coming from the 4Runner forum, a lot of guys there run them. In doing a search here, the use of Radflo's is almost non-existent.

    I have had 5100's, 6112's, and Icon 2.5's. Still looking for that elusive street ride that is forgiving but firm. I off-road 15 miles a year (fishing), so looking for a smooth, controlled street ride that absorbs the impact of raised manhole covers, freeway transition strips, speed bumps, etc.

    I really like my Icons, but a little too harsh for what I am after.

    Would love to hear about your experience with Radflo on a Tundra.

    Thanks

    Not many people run Radflo.

    You want an honest review and information on Radflo, hit up Erick @state48overland.

    He talked with a buddy of mine who previously ran King. He made the switch to Radlfo and has been nothing but 100% happy with the switch!

    Some junk
    Shocks are shocks for the most part it's all about tuning. Some companies get it closer to what people want for a specific application than others. I run sway away(thought they were radflow for a sec haha) coilovers on my ranger, but that means nothing because valving and everything was chosen by me.

    Unless it's a bypass shock or some other wizardry, it's a shock and when people say one is better than others they are referring to the valving and spring setup etc. Obviously bypass shocks, resis, external adjusters, and the like, will be the exception.

    And I have no experience with any radflow bolt in coilovers for tundras.
