    I want to upgrade my stock leaf springs without a lift necessarily. What should I get? Thanks

    Do you need beefier springs to carry more weight, or do you just want new springs that aren't sagging?

    ^^^ What these guys said. Determine why you need to replace them and go from there.

    If just for an old saggy ass, then just get some lightly used OEMs. Or maybe an AAL for adding weight.

    I have thought about doing this also. With the ARE cap on the back I'd just like something a little stiffer and I feel like bringing it up an inch or so would balance the look of the truck a bit. Been looking at the Dobinsons but I'm really not sure which one I need. The ones on there now are the OEM replacements I'm guessing were done maybe 7 or 8 years ago. Still OK.....but getting tired.

    Deavers or alcan. Custom setup; pricey but worth it.

    Stock Toyota leafs are garbage.

    Not at all necessary for someone in a stock truck.

    That pack adds a good amount of lift.
