    So I purchased a TRD Pro suspension for my 2015 TRD Off-road Tacoma DCSB. I've read in numerous places that the TRD Pro suspension will lift the front of my truck anywhere from an inch to two inches. The Tacoma's are notorious for having weak leaf springs and have a tendency to sag over a period of time. My goal is to replace the leaf packs but I'm not sure with what brand or with what lift. I'm looking at 2" leaf packs (Deaver, Dobbinsons, and Icon). I want something that is going to be stout enough so when I haul anything it's not going to squat the rearend of the truck. Any recommendations or experience with the TRD Pro suspension on a 2.5 gen truck and what leafpack did you use?

    How much weight are you thinking of hauling?

    Empty bed most of the time with the exception of the diamondback hd cover. With luggage/cooler in the bed and a bike rack with a couple bikes hanging off the back, a few hundred pounds maybe? I'm not sure. I don't mind if the ride will be a little stiff when empty. I have sumo springs with the stock leaf pack, and they were squashed on my last trip and never returned to the original form. I think the weak leaf springs are part of the blame.
