What setup will handle more weight in my bed?

The TSB is FREE. Why wouldn't you perform that 1st and then spend your $$, if you then had an issue?

Get teh wheelers offroad 3 leaf add-a leaf

+1

I have Bilstein 5100's all around (front set at 1.75). I have the Rear leaf TSB and a 1" Toytec block in the rear. Love it...but it also depends on what you want to do.

Like Millsap said, go with the free TSB and then decide.

Get the TSB - it's FREE. And if you don't like it...then make some decisions of what to get next.

Getting new shocks isn't gonna help support the added weight. Getting new leaf paks is your best bet overall. AAL's will sag over time and can put stresses on your current leaf pak.

The reason I don't do it first is because I don't qualify since i have a 2008. I have to bring a load in and show the dealer etc. So its more of a project to get the free leafs.

I'd get the TSB done first. If that does not work you could always get an aftermarket addaleaf like supersprings etc...

edit a few 2005 tacos had to prove they needed the tsb as well. If your truck sags on the bump stops with your work load show the dealer.

as long as your work load is less than max cap for the truck.

If you want to be able to handle a load. OME Dakar leafs! Best $360, I've spent.

This bike is 550 lbs, absolutely no sag!

Ditto. Had 700 lbs of sand in the bed the other day, only sagged 3/4".

My '08 has had the rear TSB done plus 5100s on all four corners and still sags under a heavy load.... 500/700 lbs. So after some research on many different recreational trailer hauling sites and many more I decided on the RoadMaster active suspension, actually Viper got me looking. $259 shipped, should have it here middle of next week and will share my findings whenever I get the darn things installed.. Need to wait until my son gets his FJ40 off the rack:sosad: overhauling his monster 350:smokin:...

Cool .. i'm curious about the Roadmaster as well. Just need a bit of help in the rear end when pulling my trailer although not too much help. Thought about the TSB myself but when you read the TSB it says that it may decrease ride comfort. Since my truck is a daily driver with the Off-Road package it definitely rides like a truck on some of the roads out here. Figured the Roadmaster would do the trick without sacraficing ride comfort. Found lots of the 1/2 ton guys that use them and really like them. Haven't found anyone that uses them on trucks our size though.
