    Hey Guys,

    Without combing all the pages for answers I thought I would ask for some.

    I have 2024 Limited Nightshade on 285 60 20 - With a westcott level kit - Fully aligned to their spec. Drives great, Looks great but the speed bumps are awful. The rebound is so fast and clunky. Would never recommend it.

    What is the best way to get it level without doing a full King or Fox suspension and still have ride quality and the aesthetic of a level sitting truck. I don't want to spend another $7000-$8000 on suspension upgrades.

    Watching, front of my limited with the TRD Off Road package has sagged almost 2" over the last few months and I'm hanging a real bumper on the front in a few weeks. Needs leveling now and heard zero positive on the common kits with spacers, kills the ride quality. $3 to $8K for shocks in legal rape.

    HAHA Exactly. So what Can I do ?

    Font only - rear is fine stock. I just want it to "drive great" in all aspects.

    This looks like a rear leaf spring kit according to the google.

    You can also go with the Rough Country N3 2" leveling struts, if you don't want to go the spacer route for leveling. About $329 for the pair, plus whatever cost for install and alignment. I've had them on for a few months now and they have been great. No issues with ride quality.

    Yes it does but I also have 10 ply,35's. It looks like you've swapped tires too. E load tires will give you that clunky feeling. You can try changing up your tire pressures.

    You can go to Rough Country's website and search part # 501148. That should bring it up.

    With the Dobinson lift do you need to install longer brake lines?

    I dont think so. I only ordered the front spring/struts to level it.

    I'll have the westcott preload collars if anyone wants them.

    Final results. I ordered the Dobinsons 2.6" IMS with red coils C59-834R. Truck sits level and rides perfect.
    To anyone considering the westcott level preload collar please save yourself the aggravation and just get the Dobinsons. Its only a few bucks more and makes all the difference in ride quality. Plus the Red coils look mint.

    @RPTUNDRA - can you post some pics?

    Did you have the Offroad Red shock originally?

    No I bought the regular Limited Nightshade Hybrid. Red coils look mint.

    I installed the TRD Pro Center Caps on the nightshade wheels.

    Any issues with UCA or did you go aftermarket?

    Hey Bailey, No issues. Very happy with final results. Only regret is not doing the rear at the same time HAHA
