It's 400lbs of weight for over $500.
I never imagined I'd need to pay for 400 lbs of scrap iron and the gas to haul
it around when I bought my $30k for my truck.

My personal opinion is that it "Aint cool".

I'm going to try a set of these Bilsteins:

GOODRICH TIRES THAT IT CAME WITH.IT RODE LIKE A BUCKING BRONCO.THE
IVAN STEWART WHEELS DONT HELP EITHER,YOU HAVE USE STICKER WEIGHTS.
I HAVE CHANGED THE FRONT COIL/SHOCK TO FABTECH COIL/SHOCK AND THE REAR
END TO DEAVER LEAF SPRINGS.THE DEAVER SPRINGS RIDE GREAT,BUT IM STILL
NOT HAPPY WITH THE TIRE/WHEEL SETUP.THE LEAF SPRINGS LET ME SEE WHERE
MY PROBLEMS ARE.
YOUR TRUCK MUST HAVE SOMETHING WRONG SOMEWHERE TO RIDE THAT
BAD.MINE RODE PRETTY GOOD WHEN I PICK IT UP,BUT IT SITS A LOT NOT
GOOD FOR TIRES.TOYOTA ROAD BALANCED MY TIRES TO DISCOVER THE
DEFECTS.YOU MIGHT ALSO CHECK THE DRIVESHAFT ALIGNMENT.CHECK THE PINS
THAT SET THE LEAF SPRINGS TO THE AXLE.
