    nice. im waiting on Toyota's rear leaf pack recall to happen before I pull the trigger. that way when I get the deaver AAL I have a fresh rear suspension set up. what I hate now is reading up threads on diff vibes on how it can be a hit or miss as well with a lift that's over 2 inch. ugh..

    There's some great info in this thread. I am going to be buying the kit from @HeadStrong Off-Road and I was wondering if any of you have experience with their 3 leaf progressive AAL pack? I think I'd rather spend a little extra and get that as opposed to getting a single leaf AAl. What do you think?

    I'm thinking the same thing. The only benefit to getting the 3-leaf AAL is a higher load capacity also if you use your truck for towing/hauling. I've also read somewhere that it might cause a slightly stiffer ride.

    Any members have any other input?

    from what i read, the 3-AAL is better for off-roading and ride comfort vs. the single AAL is better for hauling and loading the rear. again, this is just from what im reading. then ofcourse a full leaf pack replacement is ideal once the OEM leaf pack + any AAL starts to wear out.

    Me either, I live on the east coast so no rocks (not really my thing anyway) the most I'll use it for is driving on the beach and hunting roads.

    I have a 2015 Tacoma DCLB with a Leer 122 cap on the back. I'm adding a full set of skid plates and rock sliders to the truck soon and will eventually be adding a hidden winch mount. I don't want to take it much higher than stock but would like to handle the extra weight. Would the 885 on OME shocks with a rear add-a-leaf be the right combination for this setup?

    You may want to go with 886 OME coils if you plan on having a lot of weight up front.
