    Today I picked up suspension from a '18 TRD OR. Take offs with <1000 mi. Full fronts assembled + rears + leaf pack - For $50! I couldn't pass that up. Not going to tell you how far I drove for them though, let's just say I've had a lot of time on my hands.

    I have to check if my trucks previous owner had the TSB leafs put in back or not, i dont remember. The way my truck was sitting earlier the leafs almost looked like they were going negative. At 36,000 I dont expect there to be any sag, but the 3+1 pack might be an upgrade.

    Its my first attempt dipping a toe into the suspension world, and for 50 bones it's a cheap project that will help me get familiar with my truck.
    Expecting +1" in the front, and fresh leaf pack won't hurt. Considering putting a 1" block in back to maintain the rake.
    Thoughts?

    I have a question, I am putting 3rd gen suspension on my 2nd gen. Hopefully I would net 1" in the front, and i want to raise the back up too. Can I run a 1" block out back on the factory bilsteins and factory leaf pack? Or do I need to have extended shocks?
