    I have Stage 4 Icon Lift Kit on my Truck right now with an AAL on OEM Leaf packs. I’m in the process of adding a RTT and have a Smartcap on the back right now. Wondering if I should upgrade to OME HD Leaf Packs due to the weight when I add the RTT on. I don’t plan on taking it off much, Only in the winter. Will adding the HD leaf pack in exchange for the Icon AAL change the stance of my truck?

    I would replace the entire pack but I would shy away from ome. All my anti squeak pads have broken off and they sagged alot for supposibly able to support an additional 330lbs. I'll be going dobinsons or deavers next

    Dont have direct experience but I have been reading about leaf packs and thinking about a lift. I have read a lot of comments or people taking off OME leaf packs due to sag over time. Check out the suspension thread and search OME https://www.tacomaworld.com/forums/suspension.18/

    Veet, how long did you have your OME leaf packs on?

    That’s why I went with dibinsons medium leafs, otherwise everything else is OME.

    No sagging over here.

    ive had the 111's on for about 25kkm now. sometimes they squeak, sometimes they dont. its really a crapshoot, dirty, clean, greased, etc.... usually quieter when its wet out. I am usually unloaded and have not had more than 1/4 to 1/2" sag if any.
