    Don't get the 4 leaf pack they are worthless. I installed them to get rid of my 1" taco lean and got it right back with the new leafs. My new Bilstein on that side is collapsed now also. These can't handle any weight at all. Will be calling Wheelers Monday to see if they back up their products. I thought about going with the 5 leaf but wanted to stay stock height but now I question whether they would give any lift at all if they're anything like the 4 leaf. I have a 2000 Tacoma xtra cab v-6 4x4 and a Leer cap that I was told weighs 200lbs and I bottom out on any little bump on pavement much less offroad. I'll let everyone know what Wheelers has to say. I'm pissed that they would carry such crap products and call themselves an offroad shop.
