I was told by someone I had an AAL in the rear, but I just wanted to see if its true, or if I just have stock leafs because I cant tell! By the looks of it, I think I have stock leafs.. 3 normal and 1 overload..And yes Rancho's suck! I'll get some real suspension on soon.
This was taken back when I first bought the truck:

So the one directly on top of the overload? It rides like ass, so there's my answer for it being an AAL (rancho's are another contributor ). I dont have shackles, so taking out the AAL would just drop it down lower than I want to go. Damn need some deavers/bilsteins, christmas is comin up quick

It looks like your missing the second leaf. It wraps around the top leaf then the leaf with the clamps. Then the overload.
What I really think is that those where some mini truck leaf's and someone added the AAL to them to get it back up to the right height. The reason I say that is there isnt enough room to get another leaf in the clamp.
That threw me off some I knew something wasn't right so I went and looked at the 2 sets of Taco leaf's I got down stairs.
It should be main leaf then the milatary wrap and the leaf with the clamp and overload.

actually, the older Tacos only had 3-leaf springs...including the overload and thats what it looks like he has with that short AAL in there.
This was a factory TSM and the springs were replaced for free by Toyota after they figured out the screwup. He should try and get the dealer to replace them
Hey All,
New to pickup trucks. Wife wanted a pickup for horse stuff so I finally broke down and bought an 09 Tacoma (4 door). It’s cherry and real low mileage. Other than a nuisance buzz in the console at 11-13 hundred RPMs under load and locking rear brakes, it’s a nice truck.
Anyway, I have...

However, previous owner apparently hit a curb or something with the front driver's side tire, possibly even got hit by that side, don't precisely...
I've done a good bit of reading on the OME setups for my 2010. Going to put an ARB on the front...I'm undecided if I'll do a winch down the road or not. I see most are running the 885's or 886's if running even more weight. But everything I've read is from people with the V6. Does having the 4...
