I'm stumped with my Tacoma too. Local shop says I should just run their OEM replacements but I'd rather have Deaver style leafs. They will make those for slightly more money but don't recommend them (No reason given).
What is the local shop you going to?
Get Toyota to replace the springs due to the TSB. My old roommate had to bitch at North Shore Toyota but they eventually replaced the springs in his SR5 with TRD leaf pack.
Nissan wanted 900 or 1100 to do an OEM spring replacement. Xterra forums are filled with people complaining about the leaf packs flattening out even without any mods. My springs are past the point of airbags. I'd strongly consider them if I got a dirt bike and hitch rack
I could also order Old Man Emu HD springs for quite a bit cheaper but it appears there is some effing around with bushings, u bolts and shackles if I go that route.
Im not sure how much cash I want to throw at the Xterra still. The 15 Canyon looks okay… but cuts into my Central America surf trip funds
Long story short is I shoulda got off my wallet and threw in full lift kit when the X was brand new.:P
Why slag free swag?:rolleyes:
ummm, as your doctor i recommend against riding with a scaphoid fracture.
