    Mine was past TSB mileage when I bought the truck & inherited the 3 leaf shit. No it didn't bottom out but didn't haul any big heavy load either. The thing that bothered me the way it was is the sketchy cornering & leaning at speed on frwy interchanges and such. Just never fealt right. I went with the Toytec 1.5 AAL & it has done away with all the scary feelin rear end nonsense. Also went with 5100s all around set to 2.5 up front. You can do the same later on down the road. Oh yeah, mine was base model so it didn't even have trd bilsteins. It had black tokicos. Another reason I had to do something. No regrets whatsoever.

    To each there own. I had two reasons to get mine done. First was that I use my truck as a truck and it was an issue. The second, and just as important as the first, was the suspention I paid for was not on my truck. Essentially, Toyota was selling $2500 stickers on thier trucks. I wanted what I paid for and nothing less. Thats just me though. Good luck to you.

    I'd hate to go back to the stock 3 leaf. I bottomed out hard with an empty bed from a dip in the road. Not cool, not safe. To get new parts and a better, safer ride for no cost was a no-brainer for me.
