    Holy shit Doug..

    I'm a convert! Ride is awesome, but - it was a mofo to get everything lined up just right again. Those new bushings on the driver end of things tend to be a pain in the ass to get into the spring hangers.

    Haven't had a chance to test flex yet, going to get my extended brake lines on tomorrow/weld bump stops/trim u-bolts...

    Had a few beers to reward myself tonight..

    If I'm looking for 2-2.5 inches of lift, would you suggest keeping the 2 main Toyota springs and adding 2 more or keeping just the main spring and adding 3?

    Keeping it simple, you can add just 2 to existing leaf pack, keep in mind that the amount of lift you get is relative to the amount of ARC the donor springs are, generally 2 nicely ARC'd donor springs yield 2.5"-3" of lift

    & this is without the overload spring
