    Maybe somebody has some that they don't need or want anymore? I really don't want to spend $400+ on some OME. Anybody? Thanks!

    Right but I would feel better about the four leaf pack not breaking like the three leaf pack.

    I have a 3 leaf pack I'll give you. You could take a leaf out of each one and add to yours and make it a 4 leaf pack. I'm about 3 hours away from you though.

    I havent heard of any breaking before? Are you trying to achieve lift or strength or both? You can get AAL's for under $100.

    I did the exact same thing as you are looking to do.

    Found someone selling year old TSB springs that he did not carry heavy loads on and they are nothing special at all and should have just done the AAL route since nothing was gained to be honest with you.

    They are not that easy to find since most will throw them out, save them or not want to deal with shipping since they are heavy.

    Go aftermarket complete leaf pack or AAL.

    My rear end is in need of a AAL already or combine my old leaf back and this AAL since it is too soft and maybe a 1/4" higher than my old 3 leaf set.

    I have the original set off of my '13 just sitting in the garage. They had all of about 3,000 miles on them before I yanked them off for an OME lift.
    You can have them if you're ever in Alabama.

    I love my OME. If your thinking of going with just a new leaf pack for the rear the Dakar leaf pack will lift you about 3". I got about 3.25" out of mine but my stock springs were saggy. If your thinking of going full lift front and rear go for the OME, you won't regret it.

    No but I bet you could find some pretty easy off craigslist. Lots of Toyota's, Chevy's, and older Nissans running them around here so surely somebody's got some for sale.
