wifes company tacoma rear springs are dead which aftermarket springs to get ? Maybe 2.5 lift ? she carries 400-500 # almost every day no recall on these its a 2000 I think factory springs will just die again right ? how much $ any other suggestions. factory with add a leafs ?

If its not broke. Its not dead. Unless you are reversing them. I would say to get an add aleaf. You are not worrying about flex. It will get it back on its feet. Not sure which to get , but JC Whitney has the rough Country 2" add a leaf. for pretty cheap.:D

get a cheap add a leaf. i used them on the front springs on my truck. they are old rears for rock crawilin but they are about $36 for the set.

they ARE reversed with load they hit stops put on add a leafs i think they will break

Yeah I think the 98's had a recall on the springs. Overload, airshocks or maybe airbags????

how many miles are on it? 2000 would be under warranty if the mileage is 36K or under.

IMHO - I would suggest a bolt on air bag overload kit. Sounds like the perfect addition to handle the added loads, and not kill the ride.

yea like the airbag idea but then its bags AND new springs second owner its got 30 somthing on it had 20 when she got it what a piece of crap I drove it home from Idaho 4x4 extra cab auto air all the stuff thought nice ride put 500 pounds in it ass sagged and my 22r might beat it not really but counld not believe how much a little weight killed the power ( 4 cyl. ) Still like answer what lift kit mite level out with load still ride decent shes driving 3000 mi a month

holy run on sentence!! :flipoff2:

I think Old Man Emu makes a replacement leaf pack for a 2000 tacoma. figure about 3" lift. Not sure about $.

yea went to quite the HS guess Ill just have to order something
THANX will still listen to more input

If you are looking at something cheap and easy, go air shocks, that will level it back out when loaded. That way when she isn't carrying something, the ass end of your truck want be in the air ( if you put a lift spring)

Go to autozone, get some airshocks and try it out, Hell, if it don't work, take them off and get your money back.

Didn't you say it was a company vehicle??? I would n't worry about it, just drive the sh*t out of it

I put on air bags when I saw them at the Toyota dealer and he gave me a "gotta get rid of em" price (I think it was somewhere around $150). They work great when you're carrying a heavy load and empty them when you're done.
