Rears up front, and Hilux Fronts in the rear!
You WILL need either, new spring hangers (The spring eyes are wider on the Lux ones)
Or get some of those tapered shackles off a Courier or something

IIRC, stock zook rears = 2" lift in the front
2" Zook rears = 4" lift in the front
Stock Lux fronts = 3" lift in the rear
2" Lux Fronts = 5" lift in the rear
Don't quote me! Lol
But this all depends on if and where you move spring perches, if you extend chassis etc etc

Basically remove them down to 3 springs a pack, front n rear.. And you're sweet

i'm running lux front all round SPOA - 1 leaf in the rear with the military wrap half (leading edge of wrap leaf is lopped off) for safety. 2 leaves in the front (both full length with mil wrap). Flexes great - rear isnt as good cos theres less weight in the ass - in hindsight inboarding the leaves a little more would have been better.
