    Rear spring snapped at 30K, had my small tool box in the bed and was told that was the cause. can't carry a pound of feathers because it was NOT A TUNDRA.

    Got sucked into the 2008 becase of the recall and being a contractor (small) it was the only truck availible in the area.

    OH, finely paid to have heavy duty springs (4 leaf + booster coil) installed, after that Toyota had the recall on springs, it took me a year to get any type of comp from Toyota.
    Now a recall on the frame (again), brought Mrs. Budwizzer in for the frame and low and behold they swapped springs, my VIN was not in their system, so with out a call the tookoff my HD springs and put on baby carrage ones. you know 1/4" thick springs. Could not figure why the truck was sitting so low in the rear. When asked about my non dealer springs they were trashed.
    My major complaint is the truck went for FRAME (told them NOT to touch the springs) so with out a call the did the springs. Yes I'm going after them to get my 4 leaf 3/8" anf booster coils back on at their cost.
