    Oh I know. These were taken by some guy on a dirtbike haha. My phone died so I didn't get to take any. The rear has massive droop potential but is being limited by the shock right now. I mean the shackle isn't even at 90* in this pic... lol

    Thanks man! Got lazy and rushed it and didn't even use bondo haha. Overall I'm happy with it though.

    No. The chevy springs are wider than toyota's. You'll probably have to get new ubolts and top plates too.

    Wait are you talking about the hangers for the front of the spring or the shackle end?

    Oh yeah you can use those. They will still be narrower than the chevy spring but you can use washers to take up the extra space so that your shackles are straight.

    I thought you were talking about the front hangers lol. My bad
