First why do you want to go leafs?
I'm just curious to your intent.

I think 2nd gens are 65(?) WMS, less than tundra/t100/sequoia. You’ll be removing all mounts anyway so will be fine!
Not sure what 3rd gens are (besides expensive) as far as WMS
FWIW I snagged a disc to disc sequoia with 3rd for $200. The 1st gens are dirt cheap and I kinda like disc vs drum although I had to grind off the link hardware which took forever...

Long travel leafs

From a 2nd gen Tacoma? A coil/link system is better in almost every regard vs leafs IMO.
I want long travel leaf springs and longer shocks. I mostly use my 4Runner in the desert the stock link set up can’t keep up with the long travel front end. I also want to keep,it a 4seater and doing a traditional desert off road link system just isn’t in my budget persay. Leafs are are pretty simple and I can do most of the work at my house I think.

Cool man. I was figuring cost would be the factor. Doing what you want with coils/links would get expensive quick.
Since you'll be doing your own fab work look into 86-89 Toyota truck springs or 88-2014 Chevy 63" leafs. They can both be had for really cheap. A lot of 1st Gen Tacoma guys go one of those two routes. You could also have Deavers make you a custom set for exactly what you want but that would get expensive as well.

Mines at a shop as we speak since I can’t weld, but doing a SUA with 12” shackles on frame. If you want I’ll let you know how it turns out
Would love to see how it turns out for sure.
I might end up doing a full size bronco Deaver leaf pack

Deavers
I called Deaver and told them I was looking for something similar to the F67 pack the Tacoma folks use. They did a custom pack for right around $900 shipped. I'd give them a call for sure, they are great, and just talk them through what you want.
