    Hi All,

    I have a 2020 TRD OR that I've added a topper to and some additional weight in the back of the truck. The nose of the truck is slightly higher than the bed...I'd like to level that out. What can you recommend that won't void the warranty or screw up all the traction and safety features?

    There're all kinds of options. Some like the airbags (I have these - Torque Brand w/ Daystar Cradles), but you'll need to cut off the bump stops. Some like aftermarket leaf springs (I'll be adding these too). Not so much lift blocks, but they are an option. Some really like the Roadmaster kit found here, which may be a good bolt-on solution for you. Good luck! :thumbsup:

    How much weight? I had a few hundred pounds in the bed stock and didn't sit front high.

    Added a topper and probably 100lbs and the nose is a bit high for my taste.

    If you only want the rear to come up I would go with an AAL option. I am not wire what your budget it. For weight I would stay away from block. I have blocks but don’t haul.

    Icon makes a 1.5” Add A Leaf option for like 600ish and it will lift your truck ... 1.5”. You can always augment with Bilstein 5100 suspension for ride quality too.

    I think Old Man Emu may have a few options in the med hindered a range as well. Bilstein, OME, Icon, Kings , and Fox are the major brands for good reason.

    good luck!
