    Sweet! Yeah, do that for the short term. You're lucky.
    You know they are left- and right-specific, right? Just pay attention...

    So I want to see a pic of the actual leaf springs under the truck , just out of perverse curiosity...

    Huh. Those are 3-leaf springs. The top leaf meets the front eye at midpoint, which looks like a 2WD leaf, at least according to the 2003 Factory Service Manual (attached). Maybe 96 models were different. I dunno. Only someone who has an earlier truck would be able to confirm.

    I didn't even realize you were in Sac. What area?

    so I got the leaf springs and I ordered the shocks today. next is the AAL and then tires. Does anyone know where I can get the bushings for the lower part of the front struts? I think Toyotec has them but im not 100% sure its them. Also, as for the AAL, is that just a bolt on item or does the leaf pack need a press or something to get the AAL on? thanks

    yea toytec has those bushings. you need a c-clamp to relieve the pressure. no press need that im aware of.
