How much would 1 leaf spring taken out help?
After comparing my truck to several other I noticed I have an additional leaf spring installed, I would like to have the truck sit more level...
How much would 1 less leaf spring drop the truck...I have plenty of clearance for my wheels too...thanks

thanks for the reply, I hardly ever carry anything, I just loved the looks of the truck and had to have it..is removing a leaf spring a job I can do myself, then should I have an alignment done or will it be ok...I am a very hands on person and have every I tool to take the truck apart...thanks
BTW the second from the bottom leaf is the extra leaf added

I purchased the truck this way, not sure about the u bolt, I compared my truck to three others today and all of then only had three leaf springs...the top two are stock, and the bottom thick spring is stock as well...
mine is 4x2 also, I don't know why the truck was changed in this way...I would like the truck lower in the rear, as I said hauling isn't a concern at all...thanks fro the replies
