Elka's impressive lineup of coilovers, shocks, and suspension packages offer improved handling and ride quality for different types of applications and driver profiles.

2007-2021 Tundra Elka's 2.0 IFP Suspension Kit

The first and most basic suspension package Elka offers for your Tundra is their 2.0 IFP Suspension Kits. Elka offers both the 2.0 IFP Suspension Package (0-2") and the 2.0 IFP Suspension Package (2-3") designed to provide a soft, smooth ride with improved off-road capabilities better than your stock coilovers and rear shock absorbers could ever achieve. The package includes the 2.0 IFP Coilovers that are tuned for comfort and stability, and are perfect for drivers that are looking to replace their factory coilovers for a better everyday driving experience, but still want the option to hit the trails for an action packed weekend. Each coilover features a spring with a preload adjustment for your desired ride height, with Elka offering coilover packages that either provide 0-2" of lift or 2-3" of lift. The 2.0 IFP Rear Shocks provide leveling capabilities for a better weight distribution without breaking a sweat from your everyday applications. Both of the 2.0 IFP Coilovers and Rear Shocks are constructed from a strong, 2" (46mm) hard-anodized aluminum body which allows for cooler operation, and a heavy-duty 5/8" (16mm) induction-hardened shaft, making it extremely durable for a number of different on and off-road applications.

The larger 2.5" (56mm) hard-anodized aluminum body and 3/4" (19mm) induction hardened shaft (compared to the 2.0 IFP packages) for both of your front coilovers and rear shocks provides a much firmer ride, but offers fantastic handling and and control when aggressively driving in off-road situations. The larger shock bodies improve your off-road capabilities by providing better traction over trails and maximize articulation for rock climbing.

The front and rear shocks are constructed with the same massive 2.5" hard-anodized aluminum body and 3/4" induction hardened shaft seen in the 2.5 IFP front coilovers. Both the 2.5 Remote Reservoir Front Coilovers and 2.5 Remote Reservoir Rear Shock kit (0-2") are available for purchase separately right here at Stage 3.
