    87 Toyota Pickup Flatbed
    New 22r. New Leafs with Overlod springs. New Weber Carb.
    Hey everyone, I just recently bought a sweet 1987 Toyota Pickup with IFS. I threw some stronger leaf springs on the back with an overload spring to give it some more clearance from the tire to the flatbed. In doing that I created quite the front lean. So I raised my torsion bars quite a bit and of course now it rides reaaaaall rough. So to level it out I want to put on some ball joint spacers and lower the torsion bars. In doing that I’m assuming I need some new shocks with more range to work with. I’ve never done this kind of work and was hoping to get any advice on brands and Dos/Don’ts. Thanks!
