I have a 07 crewmax 4X4 SR5. no noticeable hop. Mine does wear tires
also....This is a concern with pretty much all Toyota trucks and SUV's. It is
just the design of the srub radius that they have built into the trucks. Nothing
you can do about it. Some truck and tire combinations don't wear as bad as
others.I did hear that the TRD had that problem. It is nothing more than a
higher rate spring then ever before and a lighter bed.

I was hoping someone with a 4X4 would say their's rode like a Lexus so
I could trade mine in on a 4X4 - thanks for killing all hope :)
2 Toyota dealers and a rep said it was normal. It's also chewing up tires.
I've started the process of trying to get this thing bought back by
Toyota. This just kills me, because I'm sure a different set of
springs and shocks would resolve this issue.
