Chevy Springs with 4 inch lift, What size blocks?
I have a 4 inch lift currently on my 4runner. I have some chevy springs I and going to swap in. I have read where the Chevy springs give you roughly 3 inches. Is this correct? To make the vehicle sit level should I put a 1 inch block in the back, or go with a 2 inch?

Yes, it is an IFS lift. I am sick of the horrible sagged rough riding squatting stock springs!
I want the vehicle to sit level or even a slight rake to it with the chevy springs

you will need to run a block or a large shackle and/or a big drop mount for the shackles.
I am running 63" chevys, made my own pack, a 7" shackle and a 2" block..
Up front its a 4" TG sas kit. So im probably sittting at 5" over stock or so..
