    Hello everyone!
    I’m new on here and have a question. I own a stock 2019 TRD crew cab, short bed Tacoma. I’m looking to purchase a travel trailer that’s roughly 4,900lbs, loaded. I have terrible OCD when it comes to vehicles that are squatting in the rear due to being hooked up to a trailer. What do you all recommend to level it out? I like to go off road mildly as well and want to keep the ride comfortable for my family too. Thank you guys!....

    if U r truly OCD

    next time out with family + fully loaded trailer

    get it weighed .........only $10

    it will be heavier than U might know

    yet will reveal TRUE weight distribution

    i recommend Air Bags.........ez install & adjustable

    when empty or loaded

    There's lots of spring shops in large cities.

    Ideally a new leaf pack with upgraded springs is the best solution. But unloaded it will ride rougher.

    Airbags will compensate for sag and give a better ride unloaded. A proper kit with compressor is ideal but expensive.

    Sumo springs, or timbrens will give some leveling when loaded, but aren't a perfect solution for 5000lbs.

    Add-a-leaf is an economical solution, will simulate a larger leaf pack without the cost of a full replacement.
