RaDianT ReD Towing a Blue Boat...TSB hmmm...Pics

Well to start out my Rad Red is 2008 TRD OffRoad package 4x4. 500 Miles NEW

I measured from the cement to the wheel well Rear. I got 37" on both sides.

Then I loaded the boat and jumped up and down to see if there was any settling.( I know, Pro., hu...lol)

Then I measured again, and my rear end was 36 1/4"

So a total of 3/4" drop in towing the Boat. I'm not sure how much Tounge load is but I beleive it's 350lbs. I will drive and then remeasure in a couple of months. I still have 2.9 yrs to gt TSB done...

Best i could get with Traffic and the sun and Length.






These are the springs i currently have. Does CD mean anything?

 

I wish the bottom of my truck was still that clean

 

what is the tongue weight of that setup?

hey, looks like you live nearby? east bay?

 

I need to get a scale so i can measure it but the weight of Boat trailer gas stuff is about 4500 so what is it 8 to 11% around 350 to 450?

 

Looks good....do you 'need' the TSB...doesn't look like it if that is about the only towing/load you usually haul.
If you are concerned then load a few hundred pounds into the bed and see how much it sinks.
If you like your ride quality now and you don't tow/haul larger loads then I'd suggest not getting the TSB.

 

Foxy...You're soo smart. Now I know why, "Chick's" will rule the world some day...

 

Ha!
Well some time ago I swore I was going to stop reading any TSB related thread...I dunno what happened, just too much time and nothing to do

BTW...nice choice in color

 

Nice looking set up you have there.
