    If you can still get the leaf spring TSB that might help with the bottoming out issue. I think it's only covered under the 3 year/36,000 warranty though. Not sure.

    You know what? The more I think about it the more pissed off I get!!! Warranty or not, the fact is that those have been recalled and they should still fix it!

    Sombitch just like that harley a damn money pit ! But if it will soften the rear i will do it. I was always under impression the rear leaf was not included in toytec 3in.lift.

    Are you referring to this lift? It comes with an AAL. The ultimate lift does too.

    Yes, the issue is the taco's leafs are too weak. They should have one more leaf in the them. The add a leaf stiffens them up so you won't be bottoming out on the bump stops. It give it some lift too.
