Any of y'all deal with this? My truck is out of warranty but I'm wondering if they will still replace them with the 4 pack. I should be able to haul more than 10 crawfish sacks without hitting my bump stops. Planning on calling Monday.

I replaced my entire leaf pack with boss heavy duty springs. I've never bottomed out since even after towing my 22ft bay boat. It does raise it 2 inches as well and will run you about 600 dollars but by far the best upgrade I could have wanted in terms of payload. Replaced all my shocks with bilstein 5100 and raised the front 1 3/4 inches. Truck rides amazingly well

I did all this after getting very tired of bottoming out towing even my little flatboat

I actually had a leaf spring crack in half. Half of it fell off in the woods and I just pulled the other half out. That was really odd.

Have you checked on Tacomaworld.com? Lots of info there.
I had a '96 4 Runner and replaced the rear springs with ole man emu.

Had mine replaced at Price Leblanc. I have an 09 DC 4X. They replaced them with the standard 4 pack and look real nice. I haven't had any issues with them (before and after).

If you are out of the warranty period then you aren't eligible for the TSB. Have you checked to see if you are part of the recall?
