    Nope, I've already got everything. I'm really thinking it should be a 2 hour job for a place that has done an AAL before... Personally I could probably do it in 4-5 hours...

    You could probably do it yourself in 2-3 hours. I did my whole lift in six hours. And I'm no mechanic

    It's just tough because I currently don't own the proper jacks or have a place to store them. So if I can get it done for $250 it would be a wash as far as price goes. My dad has a jeep guy that would probably do it/help me out if I made a trip to the Twin Cities. The thing I'm questioning is the Toyota dealer said they can't "take apart" the leaf pack to put the AAL in between the overload and the other 3 springs and said something about the not having the right equipment. HOW DO YOU NOT HAVE THE RIGHT EQUIPMENT!!!!! Besides the jacks I have all that equipment. I still don't understand why they can't take the leaf pack apart...

    They sold me a truck my truck said they did the big safety inspection and its 100% ready to go... I got home and pulled the e brake.... No e brake they didn't feel it was a needed safety feature on a manual transmission truck

    672a7580dad66969946f3bbccd40ea5d_4296c0801458d37d8eef9e1e43af53ac1615f4dc.jpg

    Suspension was completely shot... They said it was good... It was by word of mouth truck was on a lift when I got to see it, drove down from staples Minnesota... Paid 7800 for a truck that had no e brake and blown out suspension... Hole in the muffler I knew about so that I already knew I had to replace...

    Shady shit for sure

    Yeah , that ain't right. I helped my mom buy a prius from them. The sales Lady didn't know shit; when I asked if there were any known issues with these, to test her, she failed. Right around the big "acceleration" debacle. The stock radio said "compact Disc" on it, she said "oh look, it can hold multiole CDs." Then she said she was gonna be running for a local political position. My inner dialogue said sounds like a perfect match from someone who knows less than nothing. Then the sales manager practically shouted at us for 20 min during negotiations and my mom just threw her hands up and said "OK, OK I'll take it." I said "Nooooooooo! You're doing it wrong!"
