I have a 1991 IFS Toyota truck. I want to remove the overload spring. What are the best ways to do this without having my rear sit lower then the front? I was thinking 1" lift blocks but the ones i first bought, the holes were too small. Or would it be easier to cut the overload spring ends off and just keep the centers?
 
Some longer shackles in the back would be my 1st choice. You won't need much extra length to make up for the overload leaf, as it does not add much arch (if any) to the spring, it just sits there and adds thickness to the pack until you load your rig down. 1" "lift shackles" would work perfect.
 
If i took my cut-off tool and just cut the ends off and kept the centers, would that be just as good? I just want more flex till I get my lift and SAS
 
Imma run the bed till it falls off
and dont try to help it :flipoff:

Well hit up the trail and see who gets further on slippery rocks
