I've only had this system on for a couple weeks so these are very initial impressions here, but so far I love it. The ride quality is great! I was originally concerned that it may be harsh and unpleasant to ride in for the fam (I had a spacer lift on a 2001 Tundra that rode like a brick). Thankfully I like it much better than the factory stuff and it is worlds better than a spacer lift. Shocks are very well valved and its handling characteristics are much improved.
The fronts are Eibach springs over their adjustable strut. I left them set where Toytec sets them from their shop (one is marked passenger and one driver side) to compensate for the driver weight and fuel tank (driver side). They were a hair under 3" when first installed, about 2.75' now but I fully expect them to settle a little bit more. That's about right because their target is 2.5" factory set. I went with these because they are adjustable and I can move them up a bit later if I add more weight to the front.
The rear is a taller 862 spring from OME with their longer BOSS shock. I have loaded the vehicle several times with all the kids, dog and gear and they hardly budge compared the factory. They netted roughly the same lift as the front (a hair under 3") and so they may settle a bit too. With 285's installed the truck is overall right at 4" taller than it was before.
I'm excited to see how their shocks wear with time but the build quality is great and so far love the way it rides. It has the wife's stamp of approval and of course the kids love it, despite tripping several times while trying to climb in (old ride heights die hard).
