Could anyone tell me the benefit or purpose of having remote reservoir on shocks and coil overs

I didn’t think of that. That’s a good idea thank you

Eventually looking to buy a 3 inch lift with Kings front and back.. any recommendations on rear leafs that hold added weight and also which site or kits are people buying. I’ve seen a few different kits out there that use Kings. Also I don’t do much off-roading but I don’t want to build a mall...

Would you happen to know if this will fit 35s with this lift. I was lookin to get the same kit but I’m trying to clear 35s with what ever I go with

I love my K5 but it’s been a long4 year process of frame swapping and body work due to lack of funds and motivation

Only downside is my wife always drives the JKU but that did lead to me getting a Taco

Yea I also have a 4 door jk on 35s

I come from the square body Chevy world of solid axles leafs front and back and body lift. Which is way simpler then the Tacoma world I’m jumping Into

Yea I’m in the air about which to do. But I’ve got access to a shop and my shop welder so I figured I’d do the basic CMC no relocate and if I somehow manage to rub then I’d just relocate

Yea for the terrain I would have acces to in New Jersey, it wouldn’t be worth it for me. I’m leaning towards mid travel with Kings front and rear but don’t know what leaf spring to go with in the rear.

I’d like to run 35s and I’m ready to chop what needs to be chopped to do that. I’m pretty sure I’ve got the lift picked out except for rear leafs and I’m undecided if I wanna just stick with a mid travel kit or just get it done in one shot with a long travel set up,

I’m trying to gather as much knowledge on all the issues people run into and build my Taco once and hopefully not run into any problems

Yea I’ve watched videos on it. So yea I mean either way it’s cut and welding, so it just depends on how I wanna go. Lucky for me I work at a dealership and I can weld. Just trying to accumulate all the parts and money for parts so I can start sculpting the truck into what I want

Seems pretty simple so I may invest in that then the CMC

I was wondering if the CMC is necessary if you go ahead and do the cab mount relocation on the frame instead. Does it give you enough clearance, as the CMC?
