    Expo packs are supposed to be smoother with lots of smaller leafs vs fewer larger leafs in the Dakar. Also, guaranteed a full lift with the expo vs some people getting anywhere from 2.5-3.5" with the Dakar's.

    I was torn between the expos and Dakar's when I was shopping so I did a bunch of research. I was set on the expos but they were out of stock and I was impatient so I know I could manage with the Dakar's since I could "tune" the pack by adding or removing leafs if I didn't get the lift I wanted.

    expos are for +400-500 lbs weight, 20% higher spring rate than normal pack. not sure..................

    All-Pro Off Road now offers a heavy duty "Expedition" version of its popular rear leaf springs for Toyota Tacomas. Long known for the superior quality and off-road performance of their standard duty leaf springs, All-Pro's new Expedition leafs are specifically designed to combine off-road performance with heavy duty weight carrying capacity. The popular expedition style trend in off-road vehicles is resulting in trucks that are carrying heavier loads than normally seen off-road. Specialized long-distance excursion gear such as roof-top tents, recovery and repair gear, camping equipment and extra water and fluids can add significantly to the cargo weight of expedition vehicles, exceeding the intended operating parameters of typical performance leaf springs.

    All-Pro's Expedition Leaf Springs feature a 20% higher spring rate than their standard leaf springs. They are otherwise identical in dimension and quality, providing the same eye-to-eye measurements and wheel travel. On unloaded Tacomas, they will result in a 1" taller stance than the stated lift height of 3". The stated lift height is maintained with loads of 400-500 lbs of cargo.
