I have "ROUGH" country on my truck and I will NEVER buy them again.. I can't speak for the Pro Comp. Just my opinion...

The PO of my truck put a 4in rough country on. Its stiff as hell. I'm leaving it on for now. Hope to do sas soon.

I wish we had a fabteck kit for the 2nd gen, they rock with the 6" lift on my 98 taco. Try the old emu or water 3" kit too.

I purchased the 3" Rough Country leaf springs and was happy until a few off-road sessions. The front passenger spring started sagging and quickly lost around 2" of suspension. Emailed Rough Country with pictures and my online receipt. They said the problem I am having is known but rare, they immediately shipped me a new leaf spring free of charge. Sadly, the same exact problem happened. Research after this problem revealed that RC springs (at least the type I bought) have a 70lb less spring rate than stock Toyota springs!







I obviously needed new springs and started searching online. Kept seeing positive reviews of Procomp so I went ahead and bought front+rear 4" 'heavy duty' leaf springs from them. Pics below are of the rears.





My father and I installed them a the beginning of December, 2012. I've been off-roading and highway driving since then and have no problems with the product. Some people say they are stiff and are a rough ride. I personally don't think it's that bad and I prefer the strength.

For those interested, here is a few recent pics of my truck,
First pic is 4" Procomp leaf springs, shackles add around 1". (Slight rear sag is from spare tire, tools, etc in the back)
Second and third pic are after a 2" body lift.
