    So I have an 03 4x4 3.4 base extra cab that I picked up about a year ago cr
    I’ll get straight to the point, IM AN IDIOT! Lol so had some clunking coming from the rear and all symptoms seemed to be a u joint been there done that so I ordered them. Come to find out I should’ve looked and fully diagnosed but I snapped a leaf spring.

    so now adhd is taking over and I’m looking into new leafs and possible
    Lift kits and the truck is somewhat lifted now not sure what is all on there all I know for sure is there is bilstien 5100 on the front and they’re either at 2nd or 3rd position can’t tell for sure from angle of sight i have I just see the bottom ring and the top ring so I know it’s neither of those but I’m also not sure what springs are on them.

    back on track I need to change my rear leafs and I’m leaning towards ome Dakar’s mostly because it’s the only option I see but that’s going to put me at a 2-2.5 in the rear but I’m not sure what I have now and if it does raise the rear what springs do I have or need to make sure my truck doesn’t look like it’s nose diving any help would be greatly appreciated

    I will try to get better pics tomorrow with more light out
