S10 Leaf Swap?
I have a stock 90 4Runner (except for 33"x12.5"R15 Durango MT's, and I keep breaking upper control arm mounts off the axle. So I was at the wreckers where I came accross a 4" trailmaster IFS lift (paid $60) for everything except rear spring (broken) but I did grab the rear axle (it was on an 87 pickup) So I need leafs, so I managed to have them cut some off a 4 door S10 (aloso got a few more matching leafs just incase they aren't heavy enough for $10). So my question is this has anyone swapped in S10 springs instead of using 63" Chevys? I measured them a while ago and I believe they are 59". I did put one under my axle (frame to frame with the center pin about centered on the axle) and it hangs about 2" lower than the axle - so as long as they don't go negative I think they sould give me close to 4" of lift... I hope..... What do you think? Thanks for any help.... Larry
