no idea dude but your ride sounds awesome

Don't see how it could have stock chevy springs-that is to say-stock would be Toyota originals-so it has been customized for chevy leafs I think you mean.

Anyways I bet someone over in your year truck tech will have some kind of advice so I would post over there as well. maybe even in Newbie tech.

Welcome to Yota Tech. Glad to have you aboard

 

Aloha and welcome.
In my opinion you would go with a 4 inch lift Chevy spring unless you want to change your stance, or if the "stock Chevy" springs are sagging you'd add more lift.

You could add more chebby leaves in the packs..

What about custom springs like deaver or alcan ?

 

I don't like blocks but they do lift without the harsh ride.

 

Welcome to YT.

 

How long are your shackles? You could pull out the blocks, keep your 63's and get a little bit longer shackles. I don't know if i'd go 4" longer, but enough so you won't rub.

 

if i do that the back would sag. i might have to go custom mybe alcans..

 

PICS! the rig sounds nice..
