I am almost finished gathering the necessary items to do a SAS on my 88 4 runner.  I found an axle out of an 85 pickup for $100 and I am going with the Sky SAS kit.  I need some advice on some front springs.  I only want to gain about 2"-3" from stock.  I am also looking for some U bolts with the spring seats if anyone knows where I can find them.  Other than these few items I am ready.  Any info shared is greatly appreciated.  I will post pictures of the swap once completed.

Currently, the rear springs are stock.  If I find another set of factory rear springs to use in the front, will I need to add a leaf to the rear to level the truck?

id run either 2wd f150 rears or 63inch chevy if your running factory rears then you can run your rear springs up front there is really no set spring pack to run for ruf most ppl run a 5 or 6 spring pack in the front im running 95 t100 rear springs with 2 leafs added and the over load removed for my rear and will have a 6 spring pack of 51 inch toyota rears up front its kinda like a trial and error type of thing till you get it level and the ride height you want with optimal flex
