    Was told they would be rebuilt, broken leaf replaced with new one, lined all up, and any ubolts would be included if needed... Removed, rebuilt, and reinstalled. I can't do it myself...

    Thanks for the advice.
    My local Toyota dealer quoted me the following:
    Left and Right Rear Springs $2017.00+Tax
    4 Wheel Alignment $119.95+Tax

    Dont be scared of the word "heavy duty", I recently upgraded to the OME dakars and they ARE firmer, but in a good way. Not harsh, the have good compression and a quick rebound. They handle weight great and there is 0 axle wrap now. When you accelerate the rear does not squat at all. Just my input.

    Will a used pair of 2017 leaf springs fit on my 2013 Tacoma? Secondly, if they do and give a little lift, will that be compatible with the existing shocks in the rear?

    I also have a 2013 Tacoma with my second broken spring. Toyota says it's not a problem. It certainly could be if the leaf spins and goes though the gas tank or the tire. Amazing that this company will replace old rusted out frames but not cover broken spring that could cause injury.

    Just checked over my springs and they are stock "TSB" springs and have the same broken leaf. 2013 as well. Seems a biiiit coincidental to me.
