    Well it’s cool until you flop your rig and your keys fall out. Then the only way to shut it down is to put it in 5th and dump the clutch. Ask me how I know about that lol

    Need some help lads, my truck is leaning on the passenger side roughly 2 inches looks a little bit more severe then typical taco lean. C4D58AF7-50E8-4AED-A61B-B02B4433A787.jpg Anyone see signs of damage that I’m just missing? Just order a some 885s and a new 5100 just in case but im curious

    Yep.
    That's some serious reverse taco lean. Did the lock ring jump down a seat or two? What does the top hat look like?

    Tell me about it, they were set on the lowest setting because I’m using stock springs.

    Like Mojo said, that’s not Taco lean. Something is definitely up. Taco lean is to the drivers side.

    Strange.

    What dobtje leafs look like on the passenger side?

    Flat as can be but I still don’t see anything particularly out of place

    Did this just abruptly happen? Or did it slowly get to this point over a period of time?

    Is it the entire Driver Side (front and rear) leaning over? Or just the front or rear DS that is dropped.

    Are your front and rear springs the original 2005 springs?

    I’m guessing slowly, started to notice it when I took my sway bar off. Yes I believe these are the original 2005 springs and leafs.

    Rear leafs are probably not your current issue, but your current rear leafs are probably a little tired.

    You're welcome to grab my rear leaf springs. They were new when Toyota replaced my frame in early 2016. I used them for less than 3k miles and then installed Dakars. Stored outside, minor surface rust.

    Didn't think I'd be doing this for a long time but... did the Tundra brake upgrade today. Found a seized up caliper was the culprit of lots of grinding when I hit the brakes. Figured I might as well upgrade. Beefy for sure, slightly softer pedal feel, but stops on a dime, hoping stainless lines will help. Also did the u-joint on the diff, needle bearings were dust.
