Suspension/lift question.

Thanks for the help man!

 

Correct, but I am surprised your dealer just went ahead and did it for you. These TSB's are not required, they just do them if a customer complains. Like the driver door seal, I have had it replaced twice now because of wind noise. The door seal was an active TSB at the time, I haven't looked at the list in forever.

 

They did it for the previous owner I guess. I called Toyota abt it and they said they were previously completed. Sent me service records and everything.

 

Rustoleum black as in the undercoating spray or what?

 

This is a good kit for what you are looking for. Add the rear springs or AAL depending on your rear desired rear height need. Marie at Headstrong Off Road is awesome and knows her stuff.

I have OME Dakar CS047R Leaf Packs to help support my shell and gear and love it.

 

AALs are decent but I wasn't happy with mine after a while especially with a shell. I'd recommend getting a full leaf pack just because if you do add any weight to the rear it'll hold up.

@ShowstoppersUSA has some options, I love my Dakar's

 

Thank you for the info, I’ll look into it!

 

It states the Deaver aal is 1.5” to 2” rear lift, do you have any knowledge on it being closer to 2” or not as tall? Really trying to get that 2.5” F / 2” R lift.

 

I'd say 2 " although I actually had that AAL and put my shell on and it looked liked it sagged a bit to me. If you are going to have alot of camping gear or a tent or shell I recommend medium leaf springs.
I am so glad I spent the extra money.

 

Let us know if there is anything we can do to help out if we haven't already.


Thanks for the recommendations @FJ to Taco and @lynyrd3

 

mine did as well
