Lift Springs

Lift Springs
I have looked a long time on the net to find the answer to this, generally i can find a answer to a question but this one i have been lacking on. On the 89-95 trucks dose anyone make a lift spring for the rear (prefer 3inch) that is the factory 51inch, and would be flexy. I also gather the 96-00 taco's are the same length. I cannot believe that no one makes these.

What year is your truck?
Seeing that you're in Nova Scotia I don't know of anyone there that offers lift springs but someone on here might know of a manufacturer.
Tried looking at Wabbit's site yet?

Also wanted to let you know that there are other options than just replacing the leaf springs. You can add coils to the rear (ZUK mod, search on here), blocks (not really recommended with the factory worn out springs but it has been done) and longer shackles (again not recommended with the worn out leaves).
You can also have a custom set made to do exactly what you want from these folks. http://www.alcanspring.com/

edit: Want to add here that the recommendations of not using blocks or longer shackles doesn't come directly from me. I've never used either but some folks on the board advise against using them due to added strain on already tired leaf spring packs.

OME medium springs, bushings, and rear shackles.
The 18mm bolts come from marlin Crawler, just drill out your current flanges.
