    Hi Tacoma World,

    I need a new rear leaf pack and I welcome your advice.

    My current setup is the Stock leaf pack with Toytec AAL and with the weight in the summer I get the bro stance :(

    My situation:
    -In the summer I have a bed rack and RTT (Autana) and 100lbs of camping gear in my truck.
    -I might add a bumper and swing out one day but that is a big might.
    -In the Winter, I have maybe 125-150 lbs in the back with my tonneau cover, snowboard gear and roadside breakdown gear.

    I need a leaf pack that will...
    -Not sag with the weight of my camping gear in the summer
    -Not break my back or passengers backs when the bed is empty (Winter)
    -Not break the bank

    I have looked at Expo's but I do not carry enough weight. OME from what I hear only give 2.5" lift. And Finally Deaver's are way to expensive ($1,200).

    I ordered All Pro standards and was informed they on back order until July....please help TW.

    Are you looking for more lift than your AAL are giving you? I got 2.75" of lift when I installed my Dakars. IMO they ride pretty good when unloaded and really smooth out with some weight in the bed. A couple hundred pounds won't make them sag. They can take quite a bit of weight. I'm happy with them.

    Yes, I'm looking for more lift and a more stable ride.

    I'm really thinking of going the Dakar route.
