I recently went through and redid my front suspension and am now looking to redo the rear, I believe my springs are factory but just wanted to make sure. The shackles themselves measure out to about 6.5" center to center of the bolt does that mean they are 3" lift shackles? I am just trying to make sure I have everything I need for when I do this work in case I have to cute something loose.

 

I recently went through the entire front end suspension of my 2003 Tacoma Prerunner and now the rear suspension feels soft. My buddy was like yep leaf springs are wore out. So as I prepare for new springs and possible shackles I don't want to lift it any higher, I would like to know how to tell if my shackles and springs are the factory items or not. I doubt my shackles are as they are greaseable but the springs possibly could be. Is there a measurement or way to tell if either of these are factory? I already have a decent body lift on it, I'm the third owner that I know of on this truck but the guy before me didn't have it very long and as I go through I don't believe the person before him did any upkeep on the truck. I forgot to mention that I used a factory length shock for the rear and it fit with no problems.

Thank you for any help
