There, finally got done. Thanks to you and your helpful tips. I especially like the fact you’re working on the ground, and not using a lift. Thank you for posting.

i love this because its not on a lift or using most of the professional style tools. which i needed. love it man thank you :D

Very well thought out and informative guide. Well done!

Hey KFlo, thanks again for posting another awesome video. Though I didn't add a leaf, I used your video to walk me through replacing the leaf springs on my Taco. Keep up the great work!

Great video....clear, good video, common sense approach. Just ordered one for my 98 2WD Tacoma. I have a 5 lug taco, so lift options are limited, this looks like a good option. Thanks!

Awesome video. Thanks for taking your time showing us Tacoma owners how to.. great truck! Keep up the good work.

Thank you! Just replaced the leaf packs on my 2013 with the help of your video

Thank you so much! Thanks to you I was able to do my install smooth and clean.

Very methodical and descriptive. Very good presentation.

Good video, but you didn't need to remove the entire leaf pack from the truck. You could have performed this task much easier by leaving the springs in place. Just a little FYI.

Your videos are great and very helpful, thanks a tons

Legit, love your vids.

Damn! now thats a How too! Well done.

Great video like always!! Thanks for sharing with us👍

Explained perfectly.......thanks

Great instructions and vid quality, looking at buying a used tacoma , fatigued of dodge diesel issues

Outstanding. Thank you so much.

Nice job

Great video. Super informative and easy to understand. I did the same to my ‘13 Tacoma a few years ago. Did you get any squeak after doing this?

Thank you, your video helped big time! Hey man your Taco need some TLC of Fluid Film and WE SUBSCRIBED man!

Great vid dude, thanks

I’ve been curious if it wouldn’t be easier to install a coil over shock to achieve the same result. I’ve seen some air bags that slide over the shock.

Good tutorial !

Looking good bro! Great vid! Sub'd Tacoma rulez.

Hi, we recently bought this 2007 Toyota Tacoma Crew cab,4x4, 4L V6. We found out from dealership that rust and rear leaf springs were done 5 yrs ago. But the rear springs look like they're kinda saggy and overloaded condition. I watched some videos about the repairs and servicing of these rear springs that the height of the fender flares from the ground is 37 inches before replacements, while ours are 36 inches. Any reference you can tell me what might be the correct distance from the ground to the fender? Thanks.

Will the linked AAL kit fit a 2013 double cab with 6' bed?

What does adding leaf do for truck?

Great video! How long did the install take you? Trying to do mine (Bilstein 5100s, OME 885s, 2” AAL) this weekend so I’m trying to see how much time I should expect to spend

Wow that’s awesome 👏 good

Excellent 👍

Nice video one question what kind of tires are those what size

Bro it’s the 2inch block bad for axle warp ?

What is the leaf part number for a 1998 Tacoma?

Fire 🤘🏼

Hey man can I do an add a leaf kit like you mentioned with a sumo pump set up too? I have a 19 off road with a camper top, RTT, decked drawers, and equipment. All stock set up. I did just buy 17 in trd pro wheels. Any suggestion on a set up

hey KFlo, I wanna do an add a leaf on top of a lift block like you have done here. Have you experienced any issues with the lift block and add a leaf? Thanks for the help.

I like the writing of Musashi Miyamoto

Simple step by step instructions, torch specs and video. Well done!

Nice work, do you do side job installs looks like you’re located east coast?

Hey did you ever replace tour brake lines for extended brake lines after doing your lift ? You think it’s necessary iv heard if you dont theres a high chance of the oem lines tearing off if you are off road

So quick question, you have the AAL and a Block spacer?

Theres two options, icon add a leaf where you have to get rid of the load leaf. Or this style where you keep the load leaf. Which one is better?

Can you leave the pack on the truck when installing this? I'm on factory springs and just putting on a 1" AAL

I have a 1" block currently. Can I add this AAL on top of that?

Would you happen to have a front strut compressor in your shop

Can I add more leafs? Just tryna avoid lift blocks

did you use the same U bolts or did you need longer ones?

Got any axle wrap with this set up?

how much lift do you get from the leaf and blocks?

Is your block in the right way? That kinda looked like the supreme suspensions block. I thought it was supposed to go in the other way. Any vibrations?

Do I need to get alignment after installing AAL?

hey i see that you are from jersey. Im from jersey as well. My rear sags a bit after the new dakars. Waiting on aal to arrive. Thanks for the detailed video. Do you by any chance do installs for other people?

hi - do you use the original " U" bolt ? i going to install a new 2" leaf so i can use the origina l u bolt or need to buy a new one ?

Hey bro I got a question. I have a 92 2wd pickup that's a spring under. How should I lift it to get 27" truck tires on it. Is it possible to switch it so it's a spring over like a normal truck? Any suggestions greatly appreciated thanks.

Hey brother i fallow your vids and tend to watch them im currently lifting my truck i seen you had already left ir 3 inches why the need to install a leaf on it??

I have a problem with Tacoma 2008 does not sound when opening and closing Barmot

So after it settled how much actual lift did you get

Issues with my Ford ranger adding a 2’’ kit left

Hey bro is there a way these have to go ? Meaning do they have front and back or doesnt matter ? I had mine installed and the right side is higher than the left , everything seems to be correct but im not exactly sure on what it might be

I’m having issues with my foray ranger

Will these springs work on my 2019 trd off road

Hey man i thought the add a leaf was to get rid of the block ? The add a leaf says it lifts the truck 1.5-2” shouldn’t this mean you dont add the block after?

Will you be showing a video on how to install Bilstein struts on the front of a 2013 Tacoma

Hey bro were u able to watch my videos ? The side that is higher i also noticed that the wheel sticks out about 1/2 more than the other side .is that normal? Or is there something iff aswell since its 1” higher and the wheel sticks out more on that side

hi KFlo -- what are you from?

I wish you were my neighbor

I was adjusting rear brakes on my 13 Taco...have a cracked leaf on the passenger spring pack. I am upgrading to new and heavy duty rear springs. I found a local spring shop that will replace with new springs and charge 110 labor per side. I will consider adding helper leafs if required. Tacomas have weak rear springs and shitty drum brakes. So the truck is well made but not perfect.

Have you experienced any squeaking?

Should of done the 3 add a leaf. And remove the block for good. But its your car your choice.

Okay spoke too soon again 🤣🤣🤣

OMG!!!!! Toyota will void your frame recall😂😂😂😂😂😁😁🤔😉😉😉😉😖

Hey man i posted some videos . Please check them out i recorded measurements of the rear so you can see the difference . Thank you

lol those are NOT c-clamps, they are pullers (pushers?). you should always use the right tool for the job, and those, while they do a similar thing, arent it. otherwise, very informative video.
