    Yup.

    Some of us tow and haul so regularly, that we're afraid to drop $3000 in mid travel because it'd all need rebuilt in a year or two. I just can't justify that kind of cheese

    I've had these leafs for like 4 months and they are already sagging.

    You aren't going to tell me i wouldn't wear dakars out in 2 years at this rate because i probably would

    My current leafs are fine, they just need some help.

    They only have about 6k on them.

    Whats up with those front struts? You selling?

    They're off my limited, I just had 5100s installed and a leaf pack with a 2 aal

    It would be good to not have them take up space in my shed for too long.

    the trick is to not install the optional overload, then, when they start sagging too much, you drop in the overload and Boom, your good to go. then just have them Re-Arched if needed after that

    I have OME leaf packs that i purchased from Toytec with my Boss kit. They are 2 years old and i tow a small camper with the bed loaded with camping gear and no sagging yet. Of course i sag when loaded but no sag unloaded.

    You plan on installing that old motor i gave you with the truck or did you buy a replacement? As i told you when you bought the truck the Craigslist seller that sold me that motor didn't seem very honest about it and as i told you when you bought the truck because of the seller i wasn't very confident in that motor. I threw it in with the deal so you could use it for a rebuild, parts or for a core. I guess there's only one way to find out tho, it's just a lot of work if the motor is no good. I would be more than willing to help if you do it over the winter, i have a lot going on right now. That's right you still owe me a Tshirt!

    Tico the best thing to do is just save a little longer and get new springs and shocks and have them pre assembled so everything is just plug and play no messing with crappy spring compressors or paying a shop to assemble them and your truck possibly being down for a day .Toytec usaully has a discount code available to use to save a few bucks

    Mostly highway, I haven't towed with the truck, couldn't say if the previous owner did. The truck was very clean when I got it so I wouldn't be surprised if the 50k mi that were on the clock were mostly highway as well.

    Air bags! allows you to have nice squishy rear springs for wheeling, but support loads and drive normally day to day. my rear springs sag like a mother with all of the crap on my truck, without air bags, but man do they flex off road. the air bags allow me to use those soft springs but still tow 6000 lbs of boat with ease.
