Default Lifted Tundra and Minimizing Body Roll?

TS,

How can I reduce the dreaded body roll with a lifted tundra? I was wondering if polyurethane bushings and/or a Hellwig sway bar would help? Does anybody have experience with the bushings? I know the sway bar by Hellwig will help, but will the bushings do much?
I am thinking of getting the steering rack bushings in conjunction with polyurethane bushings for the front suspension.
Any feedback is appreciated (as long as it is positive)

Helwig or an add-a-leaf. Doing the bushings isnt a bad idea, but wont help as much as a sway bar or AAL

Hey Tedd,

I have a 1.25 block in the rear. Swapping that out for an add a leaf will help out? Which add a leaf do you recommend?

I didn't remove any of the leaf springs upon install of the block, so the overload spring is still there. Are you suggesting a complete replacement of the leaf spring pack or to just add a leaf?

Thanks Tedd.

AAL is plenty. The Deaver progressive pack will get rid of the overload leaf
