Stock Rear Suspension Questions

I bought a used 2022 TRD OR 4x4 and since day one I have noticed that it seems a little squatted. I get flashed on the road at night because people think I have my brights on. I looked and there are only leaf springs no blocks. My question is, should there be blocks back there. Is it possible that the previous owner removed them. I And if they were removed what size would I need to return the stock stance or even add a little rake? Thank you

 

@Mojack Should not be a block in the rear end of your '21 if it is all stock.
Used, who knows how much weight the previous owner had back there. Do they look flat?
Maybe a front end level lift?

 

Are you sure your front isnt lifted?

 

Yeah it could be the front end is lifted.

 

Does it have factory struts up front? If it does make sure there is no spacer on top of the strut

 

Your truck?

 

The stock leafs are known to sag out, esp with hauling or wheeling.

Beyond that, folks love to 'level' the truck which is a front biased lift. So when the leafs eventually sag, you'll get squatted.


Adjust those headlights. Super easy, and with the sharp cutoffs, you can't really miss. Adjust one side to the proper height and match the cutoff on the other. Just a round phillips number 2 down the slot.

 

Here is a pic of the front shocks, it has a spacer not sure if it is factory or not. Either way some rear springs might be in order.

 

LOL That is the TRD Hawaiian model!

 

Looks like a spacer lift. If you want the lift but the rear to sit higher you have a few options

You can get an add a leaf which will give you lift and more load capacity but harsher ride empty.
A new lift leaf pack
or put an inch lift block on the stock leaf springs

 

Can I still use the shocks or will I need new ones if I add a block?

 

If you add a 1' block you can use the factory shocks.
