    New to this group. Been on other groups and get tired of weasels and jack-asses. Just looking for a group with a little maturity. Occasional ribbing and sarcasm is completely welcome, just not interested in mine is bigger than yours BS. I've got 2007 Tundra Crewmax, 170 on the odo, a few minor mods. Nothing to brag about. Also got 2007 4runner with 40k on the odo. I'll expect some fallout for this but I also have 2004 Discovery 2 with 115 on the clock and I work on that effer constantly. Got an 08 TBSS also:) just a play car. Just picked up an 08 GMC Envoy that may replace the Disco. Too many effing cars.

    The tundra is a work truck. Always loaded with tools. Trailering "shtuff" daily. Bilsteins and 1.4 inches up front. The rear is always sagging because it's always loaded. I need to remedy that so I am here looking to see what others have done.

    Welcome! If you care about the ride, when unloaded, then air-bags are the way to go to get rid of the sagging when loaded. An alternate approach would be new stiffer spring packs, but of course that will stiffen up the ride when you're unloaded.

    There it is in all it's glory. The crap in back is my usual daily drive around stuff for mobile marine repair. More crap further up out of sight and more crap loaded in and out all the time. Also do signs and lettering, striping, wrap installations, bazillions of boat names. The Tundra is due for some new rubber and the right front hub is making a whining noise. Spring time in Northern Michigan is all about the boaters so all my personal stuff waits.
