Fox 2.5 dsc coilovers and new UCAs

[Twotrac]

Hey all, I’ve been going and forth on what to install in my TB. I take my truck to the dunes and would like to TRY and keep up with the stock raptors within reason. I also tow around 6-6500lbs regularly. What I’m considering doing is fox 2.5 coilovers up front with dirt king upper arms. For the rear I’m thinking fox 2.0s for now and upgrade to the 2.5s with dsc down the road. Also in the rear I’m leaning towards a deaver mini pack and airlift bags specific to the TB. Has anyone on here done this? I see similar setups on Instagram and stuff so I know it’s somewhat common. Just looking for real world input please.

I haven't seen anyone running that setup here. Keep us posted and let us know how it works out for you

Hey there Twotrac!
I'm currently running that setup. Fox 2.5 DSC coilovers up front and the rear Fox 2.5 DSC. Also the Dirtking UCA.
I am really liking the setup... Smooth on the road and smooth at higher speeds on the rough stuff. I am up in the Canadian Rockies so I do not have southern desert driving experience. Still playing with the adjustments on the suspension depending on the terrain, but I think I've got the basics sorted.
No Deaver pack or airbags though.
I have fitted a 295/70/17 Duratrac on 17x8.5 Icon Thrust wheels. I get some rub on the inner wheel wells at full lock in reverse and some minor rub at full lock moving forward at good angles. A little more trimming needed.
This set up basically provides a level kit for the Trail Boss.

I'm already exploring what more I can do to fit a 35" tire.
I purchased all suspension parts through Dirt King, they were awesome to work with... Highly recommend them!

thanks for the post! I’ve spoken with a few more people and shops as well, glad to hear you’re enjoying it also. Only changes I’m considering making is to run the lsk arms with sealed uniballs now or the dirt king uniball arms and then possibly upgrade the lower as well.
