Showing how to install and reviewing Bilstein 5100s and Icon Add-A-Leaf on my 2001 Toyota Tundra. This was a good addition to my rear suspension - it leveled out the truck and increased the ride quality.

Thank you for the video and the steps. Install of add a leaf was easy, centering pin gets tricky. I did leave the overload spring in the pack. In the rear I'm measuring 36.75" now (from 35.5"). Truck is currently level with a 2.5" lift up front. Take care

Cool! Thanks for sharing. I also had trouble with the centering pin haha
After I just recently upgraded my Tacomas rear block lift and Bilstein 5100s to a allpro expedition leaf pack and fox 2.0s I can say one thing.. it’s always going to be a truck with leaf springs… great video! 👍🏻

Ya. It’s an uphill battle fighting a leaf spring truck haha. The lack of weight in the rear compared to the front, plus the leaf springs…
this is next level stuff! lets go to the truck camping!
Did the same upgrade but used the Hellwig 991 EZ Level Helper Spring Kit and got a little more than 2" lift in the rear. Rides a whole lot better like you mentioned!

Good to hear!
I found the same thing when I put in that type of add-a-leaf. Ended up putting in a 1” block as a stop gap….then tossing the whole setup for a Tundra specific Archive Garage leaf pack. Buy once cry once. 😢

Ya, not awful for $200, but I could see myself making the step up to a full leaf pack.
Do I need to add springleaf with '01 Toyota Tundra Ivan Stewart Signature Edition? Thanks.

“Need”? Don’t have to do it. Aren’t you the guy who was mad my friend was using a Champion radiator? Lol
I always get confused so guys if I get these 5100s cranked them up to get the 3” level do I need a diff drop?

You’re talking about the FRONT 5100’s. I would not do 3”, that’s too much. Go to 2”, No diff drop needed
looking to do the exact same thing to my 2014

Nice. I might recommend looking at a full leaf pack instead, the icon one is only ok in my opinion
