I'm just running front springs, the leafs that had been added in were some bigger leafs that someone had chopped down with an angle grinder and were mega stiff!
My ride height on the front does need to come up another 10mm since removing that leaf, so if I was to run rears, does that mean I need to move my steering box? I've already raised the box 20mm to give clearance for my steering arms. Or can ya just have the leafs redrilled so the diff sits in it's normal location?
My other option of course is to get some new springs as mine are pretty old and saggy, I hear after market ones don't ride as nice as genuine Toyota ones.

Re: return to centre steering dampers
yes box will need to go forward with rears up front as the diff will go forwrd 40mm in think, its not that geunine springs are softer it just they have had 20 years of use already
SASed Isuzu Mu - hilux diffs, Rears up front, disc brake conversion, ifs hub swap, crossover steering, and legal!!!!
Re: return to centre steering dampers
I've got a spare set of springs so I might try chucking an extra leaf in and see what happens, I'm pretty happy with how it flexes at the moment but onroad it's a bit softer than it was with that extra ghetto leaf. If that doesn't sort it I'm going rears up front. Chur.
