    Hello everyone!

    I just got my 09 tacoma 4x2 TRD in speedway blue a couple of week ago. I love the truck but in the process of seeking to get rear spings TSB done. Went to Desert Toyota in Tucson and they sucked. Anyone by any chance had good luck with 09 TSB in Tucson? I've almost decided to go to Phoenix.

    Anyways this is a nice community and I'm very happy to find this forum.

    Congrats on your new rig!

    If you have not yet, I suggest you read up on the TSB process. Search for "2009 TSB" on the threads.
    Be prepared before you approach the Dealer.

    Just got mine replaced and was worth the effort.
    Good luck, and welcome aboard!

    :wave: Welcome to TW!!

    Is your truck allowed to get the TSB if it is a 4x2?

    I think so as long as it is a Prerunner Dcab. The 09 model is the tough part ...

    Thanks. I know people have done TSB with Presicion. But I'm not sure if any one done it on the 09 model. Anyways you are right, the reputation of precision is better than desert from what I heard.

    Welcome to TW!! I am down in Sierra Vista (about an hour south of you) and the Toyota dealer here is AMAZING!!!! The service department is top notch and they have never fought me on any of my requests. They did the leaf spring TSB on my 08 PreRunner before it was included in the TSB no questions asked. They actually took the time to look at my springs and see that even though my VIN wasn't covered, I clearly did not have the updated springs. They ordered the parts and got it done, no problem. If you can't get any help from the dealers in Tucson, I highly reccomend Sierra Toyota.
