    I have a 2010 TRD OR with a shell and I just had Icon coilovers put on the front and Icon shocks put on the rear. The front now sits 1-1.5 inches higher. The leaf springs are stock that I had replaced under warranty back in 2016.

    Should I get Icon AAL kit or just replace the entire leaf pack? Like I said, the only weight I have in the rear is a Lear shell and the only time I have the bed loaded is when we go on a trip so it's mainly suitcases and pelican cases.

    Should I go with Icons to keep it all the same or do you all recommend something else? I'm just trying to keep it level and get rid of the sag yet not make the ride too stiff in the rear.

    Thanks for any recommendations.

    What route did you end up going?

    I’m in a similar situation, but I don’t have any weight in the bed unless we’re going camping.
