    Not planning to overload but will be considering swapping out the rear coils when the truck comes in. Not for lift but stiffer spring rate.

    Anyone mess with the rear springs on these yet?

    There are no springs/suspension available yet, too new. I would expect to start seeing products available this summer

    Any common parts with the land cruiser 300?

    I know ARB has some stuff out. Their site keeps redirecting me to usa instead of Australia.

    I know the Land Cruiser 80 rear springs fit. Dobinson's confirmed as well as a few other shops have fit up these springs. I don't know how the spring rates compare though.

    Looks like Dobinsons has some nice options for lifts and heavier static loads: https://exitoffroad.com/product/dobinsons-rear-coil-spring-options-toyota-tundra-2022/

    OME/Dobinsons/etc. (Australians) all tend to be setup for heavy gear over landing vs. Kings/Fox/etc. (USA) seem to be more for high speed (minimal cargo) type setups.

    There are also Timbrens available for 2022+ which will work in some applications. Looks like no Sumo Spring option yet.

    I have the Timbrens on my Tundra in the pics. They sounded like a great option but feels bouncy and the truck still sags even after they sent me the steel spacer mentioned above. I've read a lot about trustworthy people loving Timbrens for hauling on really big trucks but not sure they're the right solution for me.

    Is your rear lifted, or just the front 3"? I would definitely look at those Dobinsons replacement springs and pick which static load level you want. Timbrens and Sumo springs will make the rear bouncy with no weight. For a Gen2 I put in Dobinsons Rear Springs giving a 2.5" lift and added my patented "Sumo Sandwich" which makes the 1000lb sumos make contact with that lift! Now the payload police won't know to pull me over since 2Klbs doesn't sag at all haha.
