Would you replace it or rebuild it

Leaf came off a low miles tacoma And it's tweaked a little what's ur thoughts planned on replacing with new this summer

 

This is driver. Compared to pass.

 

tweaked a little?

It's done being a leaf spring.

replace it yesterday

 

I for sure would not want to drive that very far It has to handle rather poor.

It is not tweaked it is broken!!!

Time for two new rear springs they are not that expensive.

Check out General Spring out of Kansas City

 

Ok so fixing to make the order do yall Recommend changing shackles too

 

I agree with others, replace for sure. also the drivers side looks flat and worn out as well.

 

replace.

 

It's dead, Jim...

 

I wouldn't even drive that...

 

I would wager that the shackle bolts are rusted into the spring bushings. You will have to cut the shackles if they are rusted too bad. Better to go ahead and order them with the springs. Same goes for the front spring hanger bolts and possibility the u bolts, too.

 

I'm in the market for some new springs myself. Are these guys the best or does anyone have another company they'd vogue for?

 

I buy all my springs from them.

6 or 8 sets so far I can`t complain

As long as your looking for stock type springs and not a 24" lift.

 

Very cool. The truck I'm working on right now will be staying mostly stock so that should be perfect. THANK YOU!

 

just be sure to buy the "HD" springs not the regular ones, you definitely want that extra 400lbs load capacity.

it would be silly to put standard replacements on it that are just as weak in load capacity as the originals

 

I just bought a pair of their HD springs. They are quite beefy compared to the OEM springs.

 

Here in Pa with the Winter Chemicals !!

I just cut the U bolts off Shackle Kits from Toyota New Spring Hanger Bolts as Well I have never been able to ever get old bolts out of the Metal sleeve in the Bushing

 

Upgrade opportunity time!

 

I used some knocker loose sprayed on last night everything came apart smoothly

 

It's varied for me. One of my trucks I was able to get one side out and not the other. Then the one I'm working on right now came out without any issue. I assume part of it is that the guy I bought it from put some AAL's in so I'm not the first one to mess with it.

 

OEM vs General Spring HD
