Apologies for yet another shock question, but I couldn't glean answers after hours reading threads.
I have a 2018 TRD ORP and will be taking it on desert washboard roads, rocky roads, and rough trails on vacations. The problem is that my wife hates getting slung back and forth on the slow trails and she wants to come along (a good thing).
Which shocks are best at reducing the lateral cocktail shaker effect while going over slow rocky trails/roads --as opposed to fast driving off road?
I was initially thinking of the usual Bilstein 6112/5160 pairing, with maybe SAW rear springs, and no more than 1.25" lift in front, 1" back (with stock size AT tires). But I keep hearing that King is way better (and more cash). Is one, both, or neither going to handle this particular type of terrain and speed better? The goal is to put the side to side rocking first, washboard roads second, in terms of valving (of which I know nothing).
4R weight is a little over stock with sliders, aluminum skids, rear cargo tray.
