I recently replaced a pair of second-hand leaf springs on my '92 Nissan Pickup (one of the leaves was broken). I immediately noticed an improved ride quality from the rear suspension. However, the rear now sticks up about 1" higher than the front.
Can anyone recommend an easy way to level the front end that is also affordable and won't sacrifice ride quality (...and could possibly improve the front end suspension)?
Those rubber spring inserts work and are cheap.
Does the front end have coil springs or torsion bars?
Peter,
I am a little confused by your reply. Do you mean to say that by adjusting the nut on the torsion bar, I can raise the front suspension the 1" or so I need to level the truck?

Sorry not good to this english But yes you can raise the front If you look under the car you can see where the torsion bars end, there is a little arm whit screw and nut and you will see what i mean.
Thanks for the tip.
