Got rear Leaf TSB done and have regrets anyone want to swap for their 3 leaf pack....

sincitytaco · 04-04-2009, 06:12 PM

I got the rear TSB done and I think it rides a little high for my liking. I did not think they would lift me as much as they did. I have a little remorse.
If anyone in the Vegas area would like to swap their 3 leaf pack off their DC let me know.

I'm sure you will have people waiting in line for this.

give it a week or 2 man...........it'll settle a decent bit.

Like Will says, let it settle a few weeks before you give up on it. Mine settled back to almost the original height in a few weeks.

neontrail · 04-04-2009, 06:20 PM

put some weight in the bed (sandbags) it will settle.

Dont you enjoy the ride much more now???

sincitytaco · 04-04-2009, 07:09 PM

I got them put on yesterday. I have about 120 miles on it since they were installed. The ride at first was a little rough, but it is breaking in a little. I have been trying to hit bumps and stuff to help everything settle in quicker. The rear of my truck is 1/2 inch higher than the front now and I want it level. My coilovers are set at 2.25 inches of lift and I would like to be able to lower them a little.
The ride is a little better than the OEM springs, but the front is a little firm because I have to have the coilovers cranked up to be anywhere near the height of the TSB leafs. I would like to drop my coilovers 2 full turns or 1/2 inch, which means I want the rear of my truck to drop 1 inch. I do not think they settle that much do they? They have already settled over 1/4 inch. I hope they have a little more to them. Where can I get sand bags? I need about 500 lbs worth, seems like a pain in the ass, lol.

Brunes · 04-04-2009, 07:12 PM

Sand bags from Lowes or Home Depot...If it settles fast enuf you might even be able to return them!!

neontrail · 04-04-2009, 07:17 PM

You are the 1st person I hear saying this about Rear leaf TSB.. Its such a awesome upgrade..... I wish the best for you.

Maybe some wood bedrails would add enough weight to bring it down a little...

WilsonTheDog · 04-04-2009, 08:05 PM

^That makes me want to assault someone.

WHO?!...... WHY?!

That guy needs help

sincitytaco · 04-04-2009, 08:43 PM

alright, I take it back. There is need for violence. HAHAHAAH

Madchild · 04-04-2009, 10:06 PM

I just got mine done and absolutely love it.

I hit coverleafs way faster than before. Less body roll.

mdt1963 · 04-05-2009, 04:44 PM

i only can hope there are termites near the bedrails on that truck ... awful

That's what I like! not mention just feels stiffer.

Looks like he got the wrong toolbox and needed to shim it up. The bedrails do the trick. Tennessee technology at its best. It takes a redneck to interpret the redneck ingenuity.

badguybuster · 04-05-2009, 07:08 PM

If you decide to REALLY swap them give me a holler. My truck missed the TSB and I like the height. I have an 06 DC TRD. Maybe we can work something out.
