1985 4runner: Plow mount, additional weight options

I have a 1985 4runner I am going to put a small plow on.

Any thought on how to help with the added weight ?

not too many of them left...if you have an alternate please go that route.

if you have to do it, upgrade your front spring pack.

you could add a couple of leaves to the pack or get some cheap air bags to squish between the axle and frame

I had a 6’6” on my 1986 yota truck and loved it. Just to small form my son and I.
So I am putting a 6' 6" western on a 1985 solid axle I picked up.
