    Heyo!

    I am in need of a suspension upgrade here. The back of my taco is sagging (the leaf springs are completely flat) and it rides pretty rough these days.

    I want to keep it roughly stock height with my ARE MX shell (I'm not sure how much these guys weigh) and my heavy-duty plywood sleeping platform (probably 250 lbs).

    I am very new to this and it seems like there are so many opinions out there. I am thinking about doing the Bilstein 6112 for the front and 5100 for the rear, but when it comes to leaf springs I am lost. Any advice would be very helpful.
