    Anybody have feedback or suggestions for replacement leaf springs? I have a 2002 XtraCab 4wd TRD Off Road, and I haven't lifted it. I do have a camper shell and a Kargomaster pipe / ladder rack on top, so there is always extra weight on the vehicle. Thanks.

    I was in the same boat and went with the general hd. I do load the truck so I figured the hd would work better. Great springs. But you will probably find the front coils will feel soft after you fix the rears.

    I'm happy with the Wheeler 5-leafs, about an inch lift from sagging stock leafs with a shell on back and rides well with Bil 5125s for shocks.
