Rear End Sag

Looking for a little help on this one. Recently had Rancho 5000 shocks and struts with 2.5" lift installed by Discount Tire. I now have approximately a 2" difference between the front end and rear. DT says there is no options to even this out. I looked around TW here but didn't see anything specific to what my options are to even my truck out. Any help or guidance would be appreciated.

 

Holy squat!

Of course something can be done about it. They either did not want to help you out or they have no idea what they are talking about.

You have 2 options for the rear. Install blocks or install a new leafpack that will raise the rear. With the leafpack, you will have a bit more payload capacity.

With Rancho shocks, might as well go with 2in. blocks on the leaf springs and call it a day.

 

A new leaf pack would be best for the rear, but based off the Rancho kit you installed, you are probably looking for a cheaper option.

A 1-2 inch lift block in the rear with new u-bolts will help.

 

Lol

 

that's some Carolina Squat right there!
I would be skeptical of their work, get it to a reputable off road shop, or find a local to go over their work.

dt put on what he wanted, its going to need leafs too

 

This has to be in FL. Both pics

 

add a leaf, blocks, or whole new leaf pack. id NEVER suggest blocks on a tacoma as their leafs are weak and prone to axle wrap already so definitely go add a leaf unless your willing to spend money on a whole new lift specific leaf pack.

 

Ops next post… after the add a leaf, my truck is far too stiff

 

Lured by title. Disappoint.

 

multi leaf packs ride good. but cant handle weight. single leaf aal is gona be stiffer but overload leaf is still functional. but yea you cant expect full leaf pack expectations from an aal. still take it over a block any day. especially if its a manual where you real feel those leafs wrap

 

What do you mean they can't handle weight?

 

multi leaf add a leafs i meant. they handle less weight than stock because the overload leaf no longer functions with them installed.

 

Ahh, gotcha! that makes more sense, lol. Thx for the clarification.
