Forum: My 07 Taco rides great w/nothing in the bed.
Put in more than a few pounds and the ride sucks.
I can see I need more carrying capacity, but I do not want a harsh ride.
I was thinking of supplemental air shocks?
Something I can air up as needed to take the load off my shocks.

Any experience or suggestions?

TIA
