rear spring replacement

I have an 88 4runner and a friend has a 95 tacoma(ext cab 2wd) . My springs are whooped and his are cracked. I am looking at getting 2" OME springs for the rear. My friend drives his truck as a commuter and needs a soft ride, anyone suggest replacement springs for his truck? Also what do i need to replace when i do these, bushings, shackles ubolts?

anyone have a place they like to do business with that would sell both applications?

thanks guys

I use Central Spring out of Kansas They ship the springs out of a wharehouse in Harrisburg and the price is cheaper .

Then buying them at the spring shop right next to the wharehouse.

yes you really should never reuse the old ubolts

I have never been able to get the bolts out of the shackles so I just replace all bushing and hardware.
