    So where do you derive your vast suspension expertise that allows you to advocate for ignoring others and talking shit to people who offer sound advice? Because as far as I can tell you don't have much, considering you threw in a block lift in the last couple weeks, and then started to complain about the ride and then stated you are going to get Deaver leaf springs.
    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/5100-and-1”-block-in-rear.527136/ in this thread you ask the same exact question OP is asking
    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/active-bumpstop.524941/ in this thread you ask what the purpose of a bump stop is (you seriously asked this?)
    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/may-need-a-leaf-pack.528401/ in this thread you complain about the ride since installing the blocks and "E" tires
    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/2017-dclb-bouncy.527322/ Here's another thread about your ride complaints
    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/anyone-running-5100-and-rear-block.528352/ AND YET ANOTHER ABOUT THE SAME FUCKING SUBJECT

    And that's just what I bothered to briefly look through.

    The OP has performance CO, aftermarket bumper, and a winch.
    Does this guy seem like he's being a cheap ass?
    Does this guy seem like he doesn't intend to use the front of his truck?
    What sense does it make to pair a performance CO with a leaf spring block lift, when you could get an AAL paired with the right sized shock for less than the cost of the COs and not much more than a block lift.

    Just in case you forgot about these 3 threads you made in the last month, I'll link to them again.

    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/may-need-a-leaf-pack.528401/ in this thread you complain about the ride since installing the blocks and "E" tires
    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/2017-dclb-bouncy.527322/ Here's another thread about your complaints
    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/anyone-running-5100-and-rear-block.528352/ AND YET ANOTHER ABOUT THE SAME FUCKING SUBJECT

    So much for the "rides great actually!".

    Some people may need to modify their suspension for their job, but those people are few and far between. You have an outrageously bad understanding of what a "need" is. There isn't a person on the face of this planet that needs to install lift blocks on a Tacoma (HINT, A NEED IS NOT FASHION OR RECREATION)

    I know right, its almost like you and I said the same thing :D

    Is adjusting the front coilovers down to level the ride height not an option?

    How do you plan to use your truck? Any current modifications to your rear suspension? What rear shocks do you have now? Is your bed empty, stock bumper, aftermarket bumper, plans for adding weight to the bed of the truck?


    *It sounds like the rear is stock, but figured I should ask to be certain.*

    And the award for my new best TW friend goes to...........

    IMHO a more accurate name (lately) seems to be "I bought a truck, wanna lift it and put the biggest tires I can on it and still keep the factory MPG"

    Literally saw a thread asking about light weight sliders...

    Hey props to ya for having enough time to look through that! Must be nice to have that amount of free time. Yes, the block rides way better than stock. Absolutely. Is it a little bouncy, yes. Will adding an AAL fix it? Hopefully.
    But hey next time I need help with tracking down information you’ll be top on my list, good detective work:bowdown:
