Ok, here it goes. I have been doing the research and just wanna see what everyone else thinks. Right now I have a stock old toyota p/u on 31's. Runs great locker in the rear. I love the truck, But my question is I wanna put a mild lift on it. Still prolly run 31(32maybe). So prolly about 2 inch of suspension lift is what im looking for. My rear springs are sagging really bad, so I was thinking of doing the chevy spring swap w/out blocks or add-a-leaf and then possibly the ball joint spacers up front. the prolly to make it look a little bigger a 1 inch body lift. Would this sit level? Any other ideas? I want to maintain a nice ride both on the road and off. Its not my hardcore wheelin rig, its a daily driver for about 3 miles for my wife right now. I was just wondering what everyone thought. sorry for the long post. Oh yeah on more thing, im trying to be as frugal as possible on this little lift as well. thanks in advance.

Why not just do a BL? If you are only going with 31's a BL should be just fine.

You will need to shim your front shocks and get longer rears.

i dont just wanna do a body lift since my rear springs are sagging. do you think putting the add-a-leafs would help my sag problem and make it ride any better?? or just go with some after market springs?

I run 31's on my 1988 4runner and it is has no lift. I have never had any rubbing when at full turn.

i am also running 31s right now, no problems at all. however i wanna give it a little lift.

that kit looks good. i believe that the add a leafs will def help with the sagging end. they will reshape and support your already saggy springs.

Balljoint spacers up front and OME springs from http://www.trdparts4u.com Give them a call or talk to Gerone on here b/c I don't think they have anything listed on their website for an '88

I did it and took the overload leaf out for a better ride. about 2-2 1/2 inches of lift overall. Nice and level after playing with the torsions bars a little to even it out.

those AALs ain tgonna ride good tho, i had a 2in AAL on my old p/u and it rode kinda rough. but it didnt bother me. i would do the bj spacers, 63in chebbys and a 2in body lift if it was me. thats what i had on mine and fit 33x12.50s no problem

i was also wondering about the B/J spacers and the chevy leaf springs
can someone tell me exactly what chevy truck,ican get the leaf springs from
cause my rear leaf springs are also saggin,a add a leaf it's no good because you will break it anyway(all the weigth on the new one) it happen to me before

X2 on that. I've done it on an 86 ext cab pickup and the current 89 4runner. Best mod available, really inexpensive, levels the rig with a set of 1.5" bjs up front and you can carry a lot of weight back there. I think one of those links on that site is my 86.

edit: My write up is the first build link from the top. I also have a write up on YT for the 89 4runner.
