    Doing the 3 leaf AAL was pretty awful. I had no idea how much I could drop the driveline down before it popped off or caused permanent damage. Took a couple hours of fiddling with it to do the first one and the second was way easier. I had help from a friend but I also had no mechanical knowledge before doing it and got it double checked at a shop afterword.

    Nope, they don’t stick out past fender. No throwing of any debris.

    TacomaBeast.com has these labeled as "In stock and ready to ship" so I just ordered mine! Placed an order with RealTruck a while ago but cancelled that one first.

    So.. now to decide what to pair it with in the back. With the stock suspension I sit dead level with the front when loaded down for camping trips. I'm thinking 2nd notch with a 2" AAL and may put on some Timbren's to help with bottoming out. Any other suggestions?

    at 2 in you should not need extended brake lines, but it's never a bad idea... Also do your diff breather while you're back there

    My brake lines are fine, and my recommendation would be to 2”AAL in rear with 2nd setting up front. This setting has netted me 1/2” of rear rake. Hardly noticeable. I can’t imagine doing less than 2” in rear, as mine would have had the “bro lean”.

    My worry is that I'll sag when loaded down. With my stock suspension I sit dead even with all my gear and it's got a bigger rake than 1/2" empty. May just pair an AAL with some Timbrens or Sumos.

    Which AAL did you go with?

    I talked with Kevin at Eibach before doing what I did, and this was his recommendation. Me likely

    Just ordered a Wulf AAL along with the ECGS bushing in case it's needed.

    Now to pick what I'll replace my Cooper ST MAXXs with... jumping up to 285/75/r16.

    I contacted an acquaintance at my local dealer that’s one of the service advisors who is a strait shooter. He claims that he is aware of owners complaining about the needle bearing, but he has never seen one come thru the shop.

    I suppose it’s good insurance though..
