    Thanks OZ-T. If I can ask you, why do you like those over the air bags. I keep going back and forth. I like the ability to adjust for the load with the bags, but wouldn't the new pack be stronger. Why doesn't Toyota just put real springs in to begin with.

    Thanks for your help.

    Do you have driveline vibrations? If so, part of that TSB is to replace the leafs as well. Could always try that. My dealer did it without an issue. Didn't help at all though.

    Just put Dakar leafs on this weekend, no more vibrations!

    Call me old fashion but at this point it's about principle.

    I have a slight shudder at about 20-30 mph but no real vibes. If I brought it up they would probably act like they didn't feel it either.

    I opted for Hellwigs versus bags because I do not want something I have to mess with every time i haul a load or trailer. Toyota won't put real springs on because too many people would complain about the ride being too much like a truck. I say those people need to buy a truck/car with IRS like a Ford Sport Trac. Last time I emailed Toyota on subject I suggested that they at least offer a factory option for heavier springs.
