    I ended up adding some icon aal's to my 2014 access cab 4 leaf about a year ago. Nice product and worked great for what i needed at the time but was basically just a bandage for the leafs. I also carry a bit of weight for work and leafs were fried/ flat from campershell previous owner installed. So anyway about time for a new pack.

    The expedition packs (either regular or 2.0) Seem like what i need but the 3" may be a little steep me. If anything id like a little less height. That way i could lower my coilovers a bit. Kinda maxed out and didn't get as much lift as expected. Also not too into rake (maybe because i grew up in California lol)

    Basically looking for some hub to fender measurements after sag if possible on expo and expo 2.0. Aprox. cargo weight, campershell yes or no ect. Would also be much appreciated and might be helpful for others.

    I know most people say dakar por vida but it seems like once id remove springs for height id lose most carrying capacity. Also looking at wheelers hd and the general hd 1.5" pack. Kinda scared to order something custom from alcan or deaver after reading some horror stories on spring rate being way off or way too mych sag ect. But that may be the way to go.

    Or Feel free to talk that tacoma world shit and tell me "dumb question" or to search more. Thanks

    Fyi, the 2. 0 is for heavy riders. Made for a lot of weight all the time.

    Ok yes i do know that. Currently probably have 500lb+ Easily
    In bed (dont tow) but would like to streamline a little but probably isn't possibly with work. Trying to find best if both worlds or split the difference in most cases for unloaded weekends which never even end up happening. Just end up taking the shit with me. Thanks tho @REDdawn6

    When I bought mine they just had a "standard' pack and the "expo" pack, so I don't know how that squares with the models you mentioned. I have the expo packs with a HD Leer shell, bed mat that weighs probably 75#, and a pretty heavy CBI plate bumper. The springs sat 25", hub center to fender when new, and now they sit at 24" after about 6 years, 125K, lots of towing and rough road use. I've been very happy with them.

    Right on. Doesn't seem like they sagged that much with your shell and the #'s you gave. Thanks for the info
