    I just got my rear leaf springs replace on my 2011 Toyota Tacoma. When I got the truck back home I began to notice that my front end set higher than my back end. I was wondering if this was normal when you got them replaced?

    Do you know if your truck had the rear TSB leafs before you took it in? If it didn't you probably gained some lift in the back and now the back rides higher than the front.

    A great way to level it out, if you don't like the look, is to get some bilstein 5100 shocks for the front and set them at .85. That will help level it out a little.

    I'm not sure if I did or not but it is a little higher in the front end after I got them replaced.

    Oh your front end is sitting higher.. I misread your original post.

    That does seem strange..

    I guess you could add a leaf to the rear to get it higher than the front end if it's bugging you.
