I had the Kore Chase on my 06, and now have it on my 08. IMO on my last kit, something was wrong with the minipacks. It rode WAY to rough. Kore sent me "prototype" 2.0's with custom valving for the rear thinking that would fix the ride, and it did not. It was a tad better but still really rough. I ended up getting rid of the truck, needed more room, and Going Kore all over again.

This time I sent the rear 2.0's to Fox before they ever went on the truck, and had them valve them a tad softer than they were. The truck rides amazing.
Even with the rough ride, the truck handled amazing, and was better than stock...just not quite as smooth out back as I would have liked. Obviously this wasn't such a big deal, or I wouldn't have the kit on my new truck. Kore's stuff is super high quality. I can only speak for the chase kit, I am not sure how the others mount resevoirs, but I was much more impressed with Carli's res. mounts...so this time around I used those instead of Kores. I also used Carli's links up front. Simply because I wanted to try it without drop blocks this time.

HTH.

I paid $754.25 to my door for the kit. Probably depends on shipping costs to some degree.

some of us don't like the stock crappy ride and are looking for something a bit smoother as well as something more capable off road

that's understandable.

i was just replying to the post. not looking into the fact that our rides are crappier than most others. what i was saying, is my ride now, is still the same (crappy if you may) as when i took it off the lot. lol

10-4 Buddy its actually good to know that the ride is the same with the spacers since most of the time spacers make it worse.

I was actually thinking about going with spacers until I can afford a good suspension since Im going to need new tires here soon and want to go with 35's
