    Alright, after reading about people with "TSB" leafs and what not. I have a simple question.

    My 2010 DCSB sport only has 3 leaf springs, which I have come to the conclusion i don't have the TSB leaf which has 4 right?. Anyway I wasn't to order billys on all for corners. I want to place a AAL in the rear. That being said, Which AAL should i get because I don't have the "TSB" leaf springs. Thanks.

    i have 5100's at .85 with stock springs on my 2010 trd(sb)prerunner,had them installed when i went in for my "tsb" retrofit.had i went with 1.75 i think i would have been level or too high in front.i wanted to maintain the factory rake...even though i'm set at.85,i think you'll actually get a bit more than that in true lift.the ride is good to me.

    maybe a letter or detailed call to "regional" might get you "tsb",i'd have them check my record of dealer service,might work,might not..call the guys at DOWNSOUTH MOTORSPORTS,they'll get you the right stuff at a great price,they're on the vendors list."tsb" spring pack is 3leaf plus heavy overload on the bottom,the guys at the dealership will tell you it rides like crap...with the 5100's mine rides great.

    I am not sure I understand the question? You are asking since you do not have the TSB rear springs, which AAL you should purchase? Or are you asking since you do not have the TSB which Bilsteins you should purchase?

    looks like 1.75 with Non-TSB 3 crap pack and a 1.5 AAL will be about level, am I correct?

    Sounds about right, but every truck sits different. I recommend that you measure from center of hub to a spot on the fender, do the same in the rear, then take that measurement and subtract the difference.
