    Yeah, I bought my 03 Ranger for 11,500. It was only one year old with less than 12,000 miles on it. Good luck trying to find the kind of deal in a Taco. :laugh:

    Too many to list
    It's all good that wasn't pointed towards you, just towards the concensus that a lot of people have on here that those paired don't work right. as for the 884 I think they are for no weight, the 885 are for if you have some skid plates and a stock bumper and the 886 areally good for full on armor up front.

    Texas T those definitely look like 5100 so your right, some springs, some uca'so if you choose nd your choice of lift for the rear and your set. And like Warren said, research research research. I couldn't tell you how many hours I spent researching my original lift.

    Like I said before. I don't need the baddest ass lift I just want my stuff to last. I'm not hard core off road but do use 4 wheel drive. I'm thinking a whole leaf kit for rear I think aal is not a long term thing, could be wrong, my truck is 8 months old and leafs are pretty much flat.

    How old is your truck again?
    If they are flat, completely flat,(and under warranty) I would take it in and see what the dealer has to say.

    Damn, still brand new. My springs didn't sag until about 2 years with blocks:confused:

    Did you buy it from Philpott, by chance

    Not normal for the age of the truck, that's for sure


    I am certain that I sat in your truck, when it was at the dealer:D

    Would you say bump stop bumped the stop or bump stop stopped the bump?

    The bump stop stopped by bumping the stop. The bump stop could not have stopped the bump, when the bump stop stops by bumping the stop.

    Stop is such a weird word.

    I definitly feel that the rear leafs are one of the weakest parts of the Tacoma. Mine don't look much better and I'm right at 3700 miles. :eek:

    [​IMG]

    Now I don't feel so bad that someone else bought that truck. Had told one of the salesmen their when they had the red one out front, that if they could get one in MGM or Black that I would by it on the spot. The guy never called me back. Now I know where the black on they ordered went. ;)
