    Today I discovered there are 2 cracked leafs in my 14's Dakar leaf pack. Not sure how this happened. I've cracked off the odd stock leaf on my previous 07 Tacoma. I thought Dakars would be better.

    I could get replacement leafs. When I read about broken springs, many recommend Dakars. What's the next option?

    Call ARB, I think that’s who makes them, and tell them what’s going on. They might send you replacements.

    They were installed 4 years ago. I'll give them a call but doubt they will do much after 4 years.
