The shims will help with the vibes. But not the stiffness. Just so you know.

I have an extra pair of Toyota tacoma leafs. Same width and all. Gave me an inch and a half. That's on lightly used leafs with no sag. A little stiffer ride but not bad. Way better then my previous leafs...which were sagging bad. I would let them go for cheap. Pm me if your interested. They actually are almost identical to the leaf right under the main leaf with the eyes. If that makes sense. But I got 1.5 inches of lift. Solid too. Really happy with them. Just have to finish the rest of my lift and buy tires. Then I'm set.

kyledye25, I appreciate it. I might be interested in trying them if you were local to me. Shipping would kill it I'm sure. If I spend more money on leafs it will prob be on new ones. I think even if I bought new OEMs and B packed them I would have a better ride, haha. I added sag to sag.

Ya your right. Adding a leaf to sagging leafs don't help too much. Haha. New leafs may be in order. I know when I took my old ones off the front eyes were cracked....and actually broke off while removing. Glad I put newer ones in.
