Not to belabor your efforts here but I have to ask, it sounds like "HD" means the 2" coils will be exclusively for those with added weight? Will there not be a 2" option for those of us without bumper / winches? Just curious.

Woops, I forgot to add it. We have a set here and will be testing on a truck soon.

Yeah, the HD versions will be for those with extra weight up front.

Yeah, the rears usually settle 1/4" after a few hundred miles. Add some weight to the rear to help them settle too.

Put about 800 miles on the suspension after installing it last week. Parts list below:
C59-300
C59-599
GS59-700
GS59-705
Stock UCAs
265/70/17 General Grabber AT2s
The ride is much better than stock, definitely less body roll and less nose dive (as expected). I am very pleased with everything. There is about a 1" rake on it, but it's hard to tell because of the slope of the driveway in the picture. I will try to get a better pic sometime soon. Now I just need to decide on keeping the stock wheels or not

@Dobinsons_Mike I think you're aware, but Im about to install the 1" TRD lift springs over my TRD PRO Bilstein suspension as well as a pair of 599's in the rear. Would sliders alone bump me into the need for "medium duty" coils? Id hate for any noticeable lift to be voided with the addition of sliders in the (hopefully) not too distant future.
Thanks,
Matt

No, the weight of those is balanced front to rear, for the most part, anyway. It's front over-hanging weight that affects it (bumper, winch, etc).

Gotcha. Thanks! Cant wait to get this setup installed.
That looks great and it's affordable - I think I'm going to have to pull the trigger on this combo. Thanks for the inspiration!
Also: What setting do you have your front 5100 at?

Ordered my Dobinson's lift yesterday.
Fed Ex already has it. Can't wait!
Thanks Mike.

Thanks Mike.
Has anyone else run the C59-505 and ended up with 2" of lift?
Backstory:
They started at 2.25" (24.25 from center hub) and have settled .25"
Yes, they are installed correctly. RSG did the install.
Running the Toytec Performance suspension built by Radflo.
I've got over 500 miles on them now and one offroad trip in that went over some very rocky sections (thank you atrac).
I've also checked and the sticker on the coil did say C59-505.
Just wondering if anyone else has had this problem.
I called Mike and he was stumped.
EDIT: No weight in the rear aside from a subwoofer in the right panel. In the process of building a storage system but it will weigh less than 50lbs.

This looks like a perfect, simple lift. Could you take some more photos on flat ground from different angles, and directly from the side?
Also, how did your alignment numbers come out with stock UCAs? How does it steer at highway speed?

Nah man, not in teal. May 7th. I run our Amazon store...
I have a couple of sets left in stock in red though. The colors aren't sold on Amazon though.
on the lowest setting.
So I've put a few hundred miles on it and it rides great on the highway, but around town on those bumpy roads it feels a bit less stable than the factory setup. I suspect this is more due to the bilsteins being so stiff. Hopefully they continue to break in and the rear settles more, it still is sitting quite a bit higher than the 1" lift.

Will do! I'll have to take some after work but I will try to get them uploaded tonight. I'll also take a pic of the alignment sheet. Highway driving was very smooth this past weekend as I put about 700 miles on it at 65-80 MPH. Didn't feel squirrely at all.
