    Pro-comp 3" lift.
    Hi all. I used lift springs to add 3" to the rear of my 2011 taco, and have just discovered one broke. Instead of replacing it I think I want to just remove the lifts springs and go with blocks. My question is if there will be any negative side effects to the spring pack after removing the lift spring?

    It was a ProComp kit. Came with 3" AAL and hardware figur the rear, plus the longer struts for the front, plus a dif and skid plate drop kit. Rough ride though, which is why I'd like to go with blocks instead.

    Going from 3" lift springs to 3" blocks would be a horrible route. Go with a full leaf pack replacement for the desired lift. What front lift and are you carrying any weight in the back?
