    Its all good. My truck is a 97 tacoma but was told 89-95 pickup drop leafs should fit. Was hoping to find a set used without spending full price in case they dont.

    How does removing the middle leaf and 1in blocks give you 4in of drop? Isnt the middle leaf only 1in and blocks would be 1in witch would equal a total of 2in drop. Love both trucks.

    With a 3" block, there was a 1" gap between fender and tire.

    With a 3" block and middle leaf pulled. the entire tire tucked.

    tire was about 3" thick

    removing the middle leaf is about 3" give or take.

    Removing the middle leaf will give about 2-3" of drop. then the 1 inch block

    What wheels are those?

    Wait a minute here..................... So your telling by removing the middle leaf you get 3in of a drop???????????? I was always told 1 to 1 1/2 in tops. So by removing the one leaf helps the springs de-arch more which gives you an extra 2in of a drop?????

    BUT i Flipped my lower leaf, normally the arc on the springs is down, so i flipped the lower leaf so the arc is up.

    Depending on how beat to hell your leafs are itl drop more. I honestly dont think the overload leaf affects the arc. Its flat so it gives the main leaf no shape
