best front suspension and shocks for smoothest ride.
So I'm looking at Thuren coils. What do y'all recommend? I'm looking to make this truck ride as smooth as possible. Its a 12, 4wd, megacab. Also what shocks would be a good match for the Thuren coils or other coils? Its my wife's truck, basically used like a car, she doesn't want a stiff ride. We have a mile gravel drive that is a little rough at times but other than that truck is only highway. I want to make this as smooth as possible. And if I need more than coils and shocks I can add those later? Just enough coil to level the truck. Thanks for the help!

Go with Thuren coils, overland shocks, and trackbar if budget is an issue. If you have cash burning a hole in your pocket, get his King 2.5 shocks, control arms, and some leafs. If you have deep pockets the possibilities are endless... Either way call or email Don and pick his brain
Thank you! Been reading a lot about the springs and shocks from him. Think that'll be the best start and add to that now and then. So what about the rear?...could I pull out the very bottom spring in the pack, the thick straight one?...would it soften the ride any?...just something free, or fairly cheap till I can replace the whole pack? Thanks.

I just put Thuren coils on my 13 CCLB and love them!
Also did Carli full rear spring packs.
Still waiting for Thuren fox 2.0's but this thing rides GREAT with just the springs swapped.
Gained 2" in rear with carlin packs and 2.5" with thurens coils. I went with 37's though wiphich also help with ride a bit.
FWIW, don't plan on running factory shocks in the front with thurens coils. They will bottom out on large bumps/dips.
