Yeah, '95.5-'04 should fit. I got a set from an '02 about a year ago, but need to get off my lazy @$$ and bolt them up.

you could try looking into doing a "add a leaf" at a local spring shop. This will also give you more load capacity...

Spring length

I would be a little careful, make sure you measure. I replaced the rear leafs in my 98 tacoma and when I was looking around everyone said they could get 51" I think was the length. The problem is that mine were 53" and I didn't want to move the perches.

I would suggest getting Deaver's triple add-a-leaf pack. It is a kit that consists of three leaf springs that replace the single large factory overload leaf and in the process makes the rear suspension more progressive and also provides about 1-1/2" of lift. The triple pack goes for about $150 and is easy to install in about an hour or two. You can buy a set from Kartek, Donahoe or Off-Road Warehouse....
