« on: Jun 07, 2007, 01:28:54 PM »
so i am swapping 63" chevies into my '90 toyota truck. i have read allot of great info in a couple of real good threads. but my question is: i got 4wd springs (4 leaves plus overload) and i ahve heard to pull on of the four leaves out. which one do i pull out? the shortest one?

thanks
-W.F.

How much weight do you carry in the bed on the trail?

I would only run 3 leafs and pull the very bottom short leaf.
