80 series springs in a 4 runner

hey guys, I just got my hands on some 80 series rear springs that i am going to put in my 4runner, just want to know if they are a straight swap out. do i just replace the existing springs or do i need to do anything else as well? i am going to cut the longer one so they are equal in length.
also how much extra ride height will it give me?
cheers cheers

this is a common swap... do a search, and it will yield many results...

Grab the rubber spring pads (isolators) if you can, though the 4runner isolators probably fit fine. Put the longer spring on the side of the gas tank maybe, you shouldn't need to cut them, unless one's much longer than the other.
