I want a camburg kit but don't know if i should save up so I can get a fox kit or go with the bilstein. Is there a huge difference between the two or am i just paying for the name? Thank

There's a pretty big difference, but it all depends on how hard you offroad. I broke one of my Bilstein coilovers at the lower shock mount and I wasn't offroading too hard. I upgraded to the Icon 2.5s. If you do any more than light offroading, go with Fox or Icon.

What he said. Lessons learned from older vehicles... if you plan on using it do it right. I went with an Icon stage 2 this time instead of Fox. I cant tell a difference

Default Need some advice

I will soon be getting back stateside and will be doing some work on my 150. I plan on getting Camburg Fox Combo Trail Series 2.0 Kit from TAP Auto and an add a leaf in the rear. I found a set of 2013 Raptor wheels to install on my truck. I was going to put 285/70R17 BFG All-Terrains (33's) on them. My only real concern is the back spacing on the raptor wheels which I believe is 6.18". Will they work with the kit? I have a 2013 XLT 5.0 Screw. Thanks for any info

My guess is that they will work. If not you could run 1/4" spacers. My wheels are 5.25" backspacing +6 offset with 285/70r17 Cooper STTs and I have a fair amount of room between the tire and UCA.

I had 33x12.5 tires on stock wheels with my RPG UCAs and they cleared the control arm so you should be good with the Camburgs.

Great news for all of us with Camburg UCA's! I just got off the phone with Scott from Camburg and I was asking him if there was any way to modify the UCA caps from their Toyota line in order to fit out trucks to help with keeping dirt and crap out of there. Well luckily for all of us, we don't have to try and modify them because they already have one in the works!!!! This is really exciting news IMO because I think it would really help to protect the UCA during the winters here. He said they have to finalize the design and make a few runs of them but that we should see them up on the website in 6-8 weeks.
