You should watch the Terra crew videos of his tacoma. It’s a thing of genius

Keep in mind you dont HAVE to run a coilover and a secondary shock to have a well performing truck! We have revalved plenty of of "Mild" build prerunners with single shocks that jam! as well as quite a few 4runners with bolt in rear shocks that work surprisingly well for how limited they are.
Now I guess I need to find a kit in my price range and a coilover that works with said kit that gives me the lift to match my rear h70’s to where I don’t look like I’m doing yard work or if I was in South Carolina. I’d be tempted to change the upper mount to run even a longer or just universal mounting coil over. I came from an xj witch was easy to make work really well and have no clue about these and there’s not a lot of info or videos on these.
Just followed you on instagram so I can message directly. So many questions on coilovers.
Sounds good! always happy to asnwer and help where I can!
What's the benefit to getting rid of the coil bucket? Is it to run like a 10" dual rate?

as 4xfooroffroad stated, it is a bit more work to get a longer shock in there, even with a 10" shock your still most of the time going to be limited to a tender spring and a lower spring a 12 would be ideal in most cases but takes a bit of fab work and cutting to get them in there. another benefit is the added size of the shock, more shock=more oil, more oil means you can push on the truck for longer periods of time before experiencing shock fade (your performance will vary based on valving and a few other things in this aspect.) long story short! build in stages and in a way where you can enjoy the truck along the way, I have valved/tuned multiple trucks with a bolt on kit and bolt on shocks that absolutely JAM. and as you gain comfort in the truck, upgrade accordingly.
