    Hi all,

    Going to be installing new leafs on my 2014 T/X baja. The wife and I are purchasing a RTT trailer and it's finally time to get rid of the stock aluminum foil leaf springs. Truck sits about 2 inches low in the rear and I've been putting it off, but finally have a reason to change them. Looking at this package here:

    https://www.alldogsoffroad.com/old-...MI_Zaahej75QIVlCCtBh1yDQUVEAQYASABEgKDZ_D_BwE

    I will be installing them and want to make sure this kit will have everything I need. Trailer will have about a 150b tongue weight, and I'm hoping with the medium springs this will allow the truck to sit level when attached to the trailer. Do I need any other parts? Any recommendations on install or advice for those who have done it before? I'm fairly new to this and want to make sure I do it correct the first time. Thanks!

    That's got nothing to do with alignment whatsoever. I suggest you research research, then research some more. Carrier Bearing Drop Kit is to correct driveline angles.
