1990 4runner sas

Looking forward to doing a sas on my runner. I haven't got anything yet... Just saving the money for now. I wanna get opinions on what leaf springs and I want to change coils in back to fj80 ones. Still looking for a little but of lift though I've read they can lift 0inches, 3inches and 5inches? I've found a set Land Cruiser 4x4 2" front coil springs. Not sure if those would work in the back of the toyota though and if they would have lift or not? Anything helps right now! Please and thank you.

If what you're gonna sas is the rig in your avatar pic there, then what you need for the rear is the rear fj80 springs. Most people that have done an sas still end up with the front a couple inches higher than the rear, even with the fj80 springs, though. Pretty much any taller springs, such as fj80 lift springs, are too tall for the short links in the rear to give you an effective setup, though. Your best bet is a new, proper link setup or set up the rear as a leaf spring, which is what most do.
