    Take a gander at the OP of this thread lol.

    You're in the less active sequoia section. What kind of upgrades are you looking for?

    You're not going to be able to increase your towing capacity from how the vehicle came stock. Your axle is plenty strong for any towing you should be doing with this vehicle. If you change your rear coil springs to something like the Dobinson C59-345, you won't sag as much in the rear when you're towing. The rear will be lifted while unloaded though. Airbags can compliment your spring setup to eliminate the sag while improving your handling if plumbed correctly.
