Need some advice
I searched but couldn't find what I was looking for...
I have a bit of a sag in the back of my 88 Runner and I'm looking to fix that. Would these do the trick? http://store.summitracing.com/defaul...Ntt=add+a+leaf
I am going to be looking to lift it before too long, so should I just go for the lift now, or the AAL?
I am going to be wanting a ~2" lift-any opinions on the best place to find one?
thanks for the help.

The AAL will make it ride rough, especially on a short wheelbase light rig. I did that initially with my '85 Runner and will never use AALs again. Live with it until you do the lift.

If you are doing a lift soon, go over to Pirate4x4 and search the Yota boards for the 63" Chevy 2wd rear leaf spring swap. Good lift, nice ride, flexy.
Someday when I have the bizarre convergence of time and money, I'm going that route.

Add some shackles... easy to install... and can give the little more lift you want.
Marlincrawler has em: http://www.marlincrawler.com/shackles.html Around $70
Remember for every 1" longer the shackle is... you will gain .5" lift. So a shackle 2" longer than stock will give approx 1" lift. Hope that helps.
