If you’re looking to elevate your truck’s game without breaking the bank, the FOX Performance Series 2.0 S/R coilovers are a solid choice. These guys are perfect for anyone who wants to dip their toes into the off-road scene. Unlike those spacer lifts that can leave you with a janky setup, this kit is designed to give your truck a proper lift while maintaining that smooth ride both on and off the pavement.
What I really appreciate about the FOX Performance Series 2.0 S/R shocks is how thoughtfully they’ve been designed. They come with a custom-molded spring seat, which means you can keep your stock spring and mounting hardware. This not only saves you some cash but also ensures you get fantastic performance no matter where you’re driving. The lightweight, rust-resistant aluminum body is a nice touch too—no one wants a heavy, corroding shock weighing them down.
Inside, you’ve got an internal nitrogen-charged gas reservoir separated by an internal floating piston (IFP). This setup keeps the gas and shock oil apart, helping to maintain consistent performance. You can also choose from three preload settings, giving you the option to lift your truck anywhere from 0 to 2 inches on the '16-22 models, and up to 2.25 inches for the '05-15 models. It’s a versatile setup that can really transform your ride.
Now, once you lift your truck, the stock upper arms can start to hold you back. That’s where the Camburg upper arms come in. They’re built to increase wheel travel and are way stronger than those factory arms. You’ve got a couple of options here: the X-joint or the uniball series arms. Both are designed with improved caster and corrected camber curves, so your alignment stays spot on and your handling gets a nice boost. Personally, I’ve found the ball-joint arms to be a great match for setups like this, but if you’re after something beefier, the uniball version is definitely worth considering.
For the rear, we’re going with FOX's Performance Series 2.0 IFP shocks. These beauties feature a larger aluminum body that holds more oil, which translates to better performance when you hit the trails. They also enhance wheel travel and give you a more controlled ride, so you’re less likely to bottom out. If you’re on a budget, you can skip these for now and add them later, but trust me, they’re worth it.
So if you’re ready to take your Tacoma to the next level, this kit is a fantastic way to do it. With the right setup, you’ll be conquering trails and turning heads in no time.
