    Notch, bags, drag, done. If you can't afford that right now springs up front blocks in da back. Don't start taking out leafs unless you really like to bounce.

    That is true. But my take on it is, if you take out one leaf you may as well go monoleaf. Personally I have never ridden in a monoleafed truck that rode well. Hey though I like the bounce. I'm a minitrucker at heart and loosing your teeth in a small pothole was just part of it back before adjustable suspension became the thing to do.

    You'd have go more than a leaf, dude. On my Toyota, I had all helper springs yanked out and the one spring left flipped over. It shoved the axle straight into the bed. That was a bouncy ride. Later, QD.
    FOR MORE INFO, CLICK THE PIC!!!

    Sorry for the confusion. I was referring to bouncy=monoleaf.
