    Its a lot less compliant... 1 thick leaf spring compared to 3 thin ones. I've had configurations from:
    Stock 3 leaf
    Tsb 4 leaf
    Tsb 4 leaf plus single toytec/deaver 1.5 aal
    Tsb 4 leaf plus icon 3 leaf progressive without overload.

    How is the ride with the stock off road coils with the bilstein 5100 set at 2.5". I thinking about getting some but setting them to 1.75" but didn't know how the ride quality would be

    I ride is stiffer, but I don't mind it. A lot less nose dive when braking hard. I could be a little desensitized since my last car was an s2000 that was lowered over 2 inches on coilovers....

    I just installed the wheelers hd progressive aal with the overload on it today. The ride are much improved compare to my old beat up suspension. My truck had 178k on it all on stock suspension. I got a used set of trd non tsb spring along with the trd shock. Slapped those in with the wheelers and I'm a happy camper.

    Hey, anyone have a link handy on how to install the 3 leaf progressive pack? Just take off the overload and then put them on the bottom of original leaves right?

    I'm still not sure what I'm going to do for front..use stock springs or get some OME ones and have wheelers make it into a coilover. My parts are all rusty and I think it may cost same to have mechanic take apart old coilovers and assemble the new 5100s with stock spring
