    If you like it, keep it.

    Ride was the issue before and the PSI helped. Glad it's better.

    If yours is between the spring and the top hat, the spring is preloaded. That is going to cause a stiffer ride, that combined with the high tire pressure if why it was so bad.

    Why did you take your spacers out? I really just use the truck for city driving, or I would have gotten 4wd. Can the spacers damage your suspension or void the warranty?

    Hahaha wow man, thank you guys so much for all the help. So glad I joined the forum after using it as a resource for awhile! that's badass to know you all have extra parts for stuff like that if anything were to happen. Seriously feel like I have a badass truck again, after the upgrade seemed like a terrible idea. hhaa.... I'll take all the help I can get! post pics soon

    Some dealers apparently very picky about warranty work. https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads...-with-local-dealership-service-writer.432611/
