has anyone done this? i read the thread on the pirate board about the chevy springs and the thread here on yotatech about the tundra coils, i really want to see some pictures of this setup on a taco though as most of the pictures i found are either older toyotas or 4runners.
thanks

cubuff4runner here has 63" chevy springs in the rear, and I plan on doing the swap eventually.
Its a lot easier with a Tacoma btw.

Here in Chile it is very common to put 63 inch Chevy springs on the Hilux to gain wheel travel (flex) and improve the on road ride (less bouncy)
It is a very simple swap, you just have to reposition the leaf mounts, something similar to this (see attachment):
