    Well I've been looking through everything and i know for sure i want to get rid of my stock leafs with a 2inch AAL setup. I just cannot find a good flexing leafpack that will only give me 1.5-2 inches of lift without spending 800 bucks on the J66 pack. Any ideas or opinions are welcome. Thanks guys

    If you're stuck on the height i agree, get the Dakars. Pull the third leaf from the top and you'll be about 2". If it ever sags or you want more throw that leaf back in or even add the additional leaf that's offered if you ever add any weight.

    Search for tacoma spring refurbishing in the suspension forum.
    Old man dave (4wd), has some great options.
    It is a great thread, & i am just starting the process.
    He is more than willing to give advise, or make a set for u.
    I know he has a set for sale now.
    Good luck.

    I'm guessing you threw the shipping in with the parts price to get $800?

    We have the Alcans Proggressives for $599.00, and the Deavers go for $625.00.
