Is this a test? Post another picture beside it so we can play the "spot the 10 differences game"

your running bfg tires. Theres your biggest problem

you still have an LSPV? ditch it and get an manual valve.

The LSPV rod is just wedged over the exhaust hanger at least zip tie it or get the rod mounting bracket for the axle

Or you are lost in the 100 acre Woods

Is it hurting anything like it is? I'm not familiar with yota s or LSPV.

Also. Shouldn't those brake cables be under the leaf springs?

The rod being up like that is pretty common, it biases more fluid to your rear brakes.

Rear hydraulic brake lines are where they should be.
Your parking brake cables have to run above the springs due to the location of the pivot points

what is your actual question regarding your rig? sounds like you just need to do your homework on how your Toyota is designed

You have been asked twice what do you think is wrong yet you do not answer.
Might as well post a picture and ask where's Waldo…

Jason yota,

I thought this was where I asked my question/stated my problem (thread post #10). Next time I will try to be more clear.

Yes, You absolutely have rear sag. Blocks only improve ground clearance but not ride quality. I bet that truck has to slow down at every little dip on the road; something a real off-road vehicle should not have to do.

Search "Rear Sag", "Zuk", "OME".

open up google and type in "toyota lspv pickup" that will explain what it is.

I prefer my brake lines over the springs, keeps them a bit more protected from rocks, stumps and other nasties.
