another rear tsb question

(i know this has been asked many times)
Did the search on the rear tsb and really couldnt find anything . some were saying the tsb rear leaf was a 3 pack and some said it was a 4pack leaf spring and was wondering what I'm really suppose to get. Just got back from the dealership and all they said was the whole rear suspension gets replaced and the leaf springs get replaced with another 3pack leaf spring. I told them that i thought it gets replaced with a 4pack and they said the Tacomas never got a 4pack. Now i have to take my truck back another day so a technician can take a look at it so parts can get ordered. hopefully they replace it because my leafs are basically flat.

 

Post tsb work you should have 4 leafs total.

 

^^ 4-pack after getting TSB done.

 

TSB complete last week. Your dealer's full of shite-

 

thats what i thought, the guy at the dealership was saying 3. maybe the tech will know.

 

thanks! my thoughts exactly. the guy i talked to was a complete d!ck was pissed cus i came in an hr before they closed to ask a question

 

It's pretty scary when the dealer is giving you the incorrect information - how are we supposed to trust these people to work on our vehicles?!

 

Not a 100% sure on that, I've seen both TSB's, some 3 leaf, mostly 4 tho'...

 

Unfotunately, we're not. Gotta double-check everything the bastards say and do.

 

The shop tech could be counting the main leaves, which are 3. There will be the overload spring as well, so 3+1 or 4 total springs as shown in Bobbbs photo

 

I got mine done last wed and its a 4pack that they put in.

 

Not gonna get into a pissin' match christian , but yeah they both suck

 

This is the leaf after the tsb.

 

And its totally worth getting done if you use your bed to haul heavy stuff around.

 

I am attempting to get this TSB for my Regular cab. My dealer's service manager has called in the Regional Service Rep for approval. I expect I will following 4WD's lead and adding a Ford or Chevy leaf onto that as well.

 

hopefully mine will get approved and i hope its the 4. maybe ill pull up with my big 250qt yeti filled with ice to show them how it looks with a load lol

 

went out side and took some pictures. will try to get some better ones tomorrow its dark outside.
springs are pretty much flat and theres nothing in the bed

 

I had 400 pounds of concrete block and myself in the bed of mine and dropped 5 inches. That is the same as two hefty women in the truck.
