Aftermarket lift kit or load leveling kit for the 2016

See that picture always confuses me. Is there a reservoir that hast to be mounted separately and then does tubing have to run from that reservoir to each shock? That the confusing part or is it all self-contained within the each shock?

All within the shock. The diagram is just for the visuals. There are outer and inner reservoirs within the shock body.

Okay, I didn't understand how it worked. I wonder if they are stiffer than the stock suspension.

When loaded, yes.

Has anyone actually gone thru with the conversion from standard non-load leveling shocks to the Nivomat shocks? What all was required? Changing springs, dust boot, mounts, etc? Results?

Second that question! I recently test drove a 2014 Limited that had the factory rear load-leveling option with 20-inch wheels and I can say it had a better ride quality than other similar trucks I've driven recently. I am thinking the rear load-leveling shocks may be responsible for the difference.

I checked with Tasca Parts and discovered the rear shocks and springs (along with some other parts) are all different between the standard setup and the load-leveling option.
