    After having the upgraded intermediate steering shaft installed at the dealer,I continued to work on the "baby carriage" suspension of my 2010 dcsb this weekend.I added a Hellwig aal to the rear factory 4 leaf pack.On the front I installed bilstein 5100's set at .85.This thing now feels and handles like a REAL truck.No more wandering all over the road.No more mushy body roll.To finish off,I put on a new set of General grabber tires.For the first time,it is actually a pleasure to drive this truck.I don't feel I should have to finish Toyotas job for them but,worth every cent.P.S. Factory suspension on these trucks SUCK!!!!

    I have the Hellwig helper springs too (single piece). You wont regret them, Ive carried some very heavy loads and never touched the bumpstops.
