ideas on suspension

whats up people,

i'm looking to fix up my 03 Tacoma. i just had to have the frame welded, 1500$
now i have to put in new leafs . id like to do it if the crowd says its not insane for me to do.
save some cash you see.
soooooooooo.....i need to know what ya'll think
here's what i need
(i tow trailer with mow equip and mulch, brush, compost, etc)
so i gotta get some support for that weight! that's mandatory
thoughts on leafs and shocks?
front needs to balance it out?

thanks everyone


(if i get solid ideas and support ill upload pics and be a total boss)

 

Welcome to TW! Give Marie over @HeadStrong Off-Road A shout.

 

Save cash? That’s a good one but good luck, anyway and welcome to TW!

 

Were you towing the same load before?

Did you experience problems that need solving?

 

I would say a broken frame is a problem.

 

true
yeah i seen the load was too plus sized for the suspension, could have been because it was old (3 previous owners)
problem is that a load of 3 or so yards of mulch, brush, soil, etc has got the old girl sagging like an old pair of teets
looking for a solid perky lift for work
not trying to look cool just be cool
and funtional

 

Could just throw a add a leaf in and use some hellwig helper springs also. Or go with a new leaf pack from deaver or dakar.

 

True. But that was neglect of rust, not the lawn mower.

 

that true
i should have been more diligent about that
however i am now looking to improve my ride and move forward instead of worry about what i was sold and how stupid i was
