I have an 85 toyota pickup, right now it has a worn out 3 inch suspension lift. i want to get a new lift, but dont know what to get. my truck is a daily driver and i go offroading about once a month. i want this lift to work well on road and have good flex offroad. when i go off road it is mostly mud and light trail riding, also i want to go aroung 3 inches so i dont need to rework the drive shaft

chevy 1/2 ton springs from a 88-98 chevy truck in the back, and your stock rear springs (plus a few leaves, cause i've heard they're waay too soft to use as is) in the front. couple inches of lift, flexes great, moves your front axle foward a couple inches to get the tires out of the firewall... i'm gonna do a setup similar to that when i lift my truck.

So what does everyone think of the 3" rancho lift springs? I'm about to put it on in the next couple of days and just wanted some opinions

thank u for all the input. i went by my local 4x4 shop and talked to the owner for a litte bit and i am going with pro comp springs all around (no add a leaf) and rancho shocks. i will keep you all informed after i take it out to holister hills for a test ride.
