    hey guys, i bought my tacoma out of the 3/36000 warranty and TSB suspension warranty, is there another cheap way i can fix the suspension myself? maybe with helper springs or something?

    if i do helper springs (30 bucks at autozone) how hard are they to install?

    thanks

    an AAL will cost you $79.99 for both with the extras to install them.

    4 leaf packs can range from $50(each) to $90 (each)
