Suspension Newbie - Looking for budget improvement of current 6" ProComp

I will admit I know next to nothing about suspension but I have learned a little in the 8 months that I have had my 2014 1794 Tundra. It came with a 6" ProComp lift but I don't know any other specifics. I LOVE the way it looks but to be honest I feel every bump on the road so I would guess it's one of the lower end ProComps. It's just very stiff-feeling. One thing I have noticed is that the rear seems to sag about an inch compared to the front. There are 4" blocks in the rear. I have been told that the lift was probably level at one point but the rear shocks got worn out. Does this sound right? Anyway, I am looking for suggestions for a budget fix to improving my ride. I'd like to start with the rear only, then upgrade the front later on. I have heard of "rear block deletes" and that sounds like it would be up my alley. I don't have it in the budget to do a whole $5k suspension upgrade. Any feedback is appreciated.

 

I ditched my stock leafs and the Pro Comp blocks and add a leaf and bought some Alcan heavy duty leaf springs and installed Coachbuilder +3 Shackles.

I also ditched the Pro comp coils and shocks and went with King 2.5 with adjusters, but since your on a budget disregard the last part.

 

The rear shocks being worn out will not affect the ride height.

Tundras don’t have as much rake as trucks historically have had, so a front 6 inch lift and a rear 4 inch lift will visually look slightly down in the back.

take a picture of your front suspension and rear

Edit——. I just found your bumpy ride problem. 22 inch rims with stiff AF e rated tires bro. Thats why you feel every bump in the road. There is very little sidewall, and it is 1 ton rated so it isn’t going to flex much

 

Yeah I knew the 22's weren't helping but figured a lot of this had to do with the blocks in the rear, but again, I don't know much about this stuff. If I do the rear block delete I am sure I will feel some improvement, no? The thing is, the truck rides really nice on smooth roads like interstates, which is why I went with the Toyo R/T. I wanted to maintain the aggressive look but reduce road noise which was really bad with the previous Ironman M/T. Road noise is minimal and I really like these tires but when I hit bumps I feel it big-time. I bought the truck with that setup, and probably would have gone with 20's if I were choosing my own, but I do like the look of the 22's. Tires are only 6 months old so trying to figure out a way to improve the ride without switching the tire/wheel setup anytime soon.

 

check your tire pressure, too much air will cause a harsh ride, especially with 22inch wheels.

 

I keep them around 35 PSI.

 

I think it gets back to your initial question, there is no budget way to address this. Deleting the blocks means a custom spring pack

 

So what's a ballpark number on a custom spring pack?

 

Ill let some of the guys who have recently done alcan’s address cost?

Do you haul much? You can get a leaf pack tailored to the load you haul. If you don’t haul, you can go soft

 

I paid about $900 for my Alcans

 

Minimal hauling. Just whatever fits in the bed, will rarely tow anything or haul truly heavy loads.
