    The rears are not adjustable, only the fronts. If you are looking maximum payload capacity I would recommend going with the TSB and AAL. The AAL is in itself not designed to increase capacity but the TSB will. The AAL is a "light load" AAL and it is meant to lift the truck an additional 1-1.5" on top of the lift provided from the TSB but not give the truck a harsh ride. I did not notice much difference from stock ride when adding the AAL and it will allow for factory flex and offroad ability, if that makes sense. Hope this helps.

    To get this straight, for load bearing (ie trailer with bikes), to get around 2" of lift in the rear I should go with the TSB + Toytechs new TSB AAL? I ordered the regular 2" AAL to go along with a 3" Coilover setup in the front for overall 3" of lift, but could probably still change this. On that note, I also ordered Bilstein 5100's for the rear, I've heard 5125's are more appropriate for the full 2" lift on the back? Mainly a road truck, no offroading, just hauling bikes in the box and towing some times. Whats the disadvantage of just sticking with the regular 2" AAL in the rear + 5100 Bilsteins? I know these have all kind of been anwered here and theres no 100% right or wrong but any information helps! On another note, will a set Toytech coilovers be suitable for weight as well (not adding armor or anything), and cranking their setting up to 3", is fine, I understand the ride should be a bit stiffer?

    Oh Yeah!!!
    Site is not updated. All I want is a 1.5" lift. I know the TSB is free, need to know cost on the AAL. And how would it compare to a 3 Leaf pack that replaces the tourqe load spring, it runs about $159...

    Thanks.

    I don't know if this helps anyone or not but here is my story. 06 double cab Rear TSB done 1 year ago. Just put the adjustable 5100's set at 1.75 (on the front)on last week. I usually always carry around 100-200 # in my truck every day. My front end now sets about 1/2'" higher now. I ordered a set of these springs Friday and I think it will level my truck out great. Hope this Helps. I love this site GREAT INFO
