    I am looking at Fox suspension and the options for the rear. All are rear lift 0-1. I am considering between three options:
    1. fox 2.5 factory series (no reservoir) (first pic)
    2. fox 2.0 performance series with reservoir (second pic)
    3. fox 2.0 performance series (no reservoir) (third pic)

    Most of my driving is street but i do go on some off road trails on the weekends. I will not be doing rock crawling. I also have a topper and roof top tent so there is some weight in the back along with my dogs and camping gear. My question is, with what is mentioned above, are the 2.5 and/or resi's overkill and would the 2.0 be enough? Currently I have stock TRD OR suspension. I am also looking at front CO's but I have those nailed down already. Recommendations please. Pretend money is not a factor when suggesting. Thanks!

    my opinion, buy the best you are willing to afford. If it were my choice, it'd go

    1. 2.5" no resi
    2. 2.0" with resi
    3. 2.0" no resi



    curious, what front are you going with?

    The 2.5's. I want 0-3" lift and I am only seeing 2.0's with 0-2" lift. Are there 2.0's with 3" lift?

    I just posted a review on my Fox setup. Hopefully it will help you make a decision.

    I have the 2.5 coilovers with Reservoir in the front and 2.0 with Reservoir in the rear.
