    Whoops. The pic of the red Baja I posted isn't mine, I googled up an image for @thegardentool to show what a red one looks like without the large graphics but with the small graphics left on the bedside

    So I recently got the 3 leaf installed out back WITH the overload and now I am gonna either remove it (too much rake) or bring the front up a hair. Stock Baja was nose-high to my eye. Added the AAL with overload and now rear is too high. I wouldn't mind another 3/4-1 inch up front tho which would level it out to go with my next (larger) set of tires

    I did mine without the overload.....perfect rake. The only option you have to raise the front (with the baja/pro) suspension is to add the specific spring seat spacer sold by toytec

    Cool....if you do it definitely post a picture of it....I'm on the fence of doing it too. I just love how it rides with the coilovers unmolested. But, if it looks that much better it might sway me.

    Well I am on stock tires so keep that in mind. I will post pics if I go for it. I love the current ride too. I guess the overloads can come out and the Toytec spacer removed if it comes down to a crappy ride.

    Sounds good. I'd start with definitely removing the overload. I got pics of mine if you look in my media

    I agree with the others that the progressive AAL with overload removed provides the perfect rake. Overload in seems like it will provide too much.

    For spacers, I was thinking it may be possible to use the 1/4" taco lean spacers for the 6112s and just run them on both sides, since the 6112 and Baja shocks share the same body.

    The ride isn't crappy at all with the Toytec spring seat spacer. I am running that up front on my Baja with the Wheelers progressive AAL in the back with the overload left in. Sits very level and the ride is perfect. Stock tires...for now. :)

    Plus I have towed a trailer with motorcycle a few times since installing this setup, and I do not get any sag in the back. I'm thinking this is because I left the overload in? Not sure...

    Huh.......I never thought of trying that. A 1/4 taco lean spacer on top of the baja shocks.

    That is very encouraging to hear that the ride is maintained with the spacer up front. I just wonder how much, if any, trimming Would have to be done to fit 285's if I went that route. That's the size I am considering along with 265/75/16's. Gas mileage isn't the determining factor for the next tire purchase (which hopefully won't be for a bit since I just turned 20k on the odo). Smashing, removing, chopping is what I would really like to avoid.

    Tossing my 2015 TRD Pro into the ring. My second taco thus far and I'm in love with this baby!

    Was curious though if anyone on here has had issues with the TRD supercharger in cold weather on 2015 tacos. Engine runs VERY rough when cold. I don't have a CAI on this because I worry about the warranty void would cause. Any input is much appreciated.
