To level your truck out you can either get a set
of 3" blocks to put between your leaf springs
and the axle or try add leafs. Both are widely
available at any 4x4 shop. I would try to get as
much out of some add leafs as you can and
make up the rest with blocks. Just because
large blocks look like hell.

Won't it have to be JUST add-a-leaf's because it's a two wheel drive so the leaf springs are below the axle. (ie. blocks would lower the truck). Isn't that true?

Duh!!! That's right. In that case see if your local
4x4 shop has a conversion kit that will move
the leafs from under your axle to on top of your
axle and that would give you the 3" you need.

I think the flip would give you too much height.

the flip would give you about 4 inches of rear lift. add-a-leaves should level it out.
but hey where did you get 3 inch springs? id this on a genaration 3? did you have to get ne wcontrol arms? I have spacers that lift my front end 3 but am always curious as to how to get more lift.
