I am thinking of trying to install an OME 2" kit from Rocky Road Outfitters to take care of the rear sag. The kit would includes new rear springs and shocks for both front an back, steering dampener and bushings.
The install process doesn't seem too difficult, but how do you know that you have the new rear leaf mounted properly (centered) over the axle.
Too, do I need to be concerned with messing up the rear drive shaft angle?

Remove them one at a time and match up the lenths to center bolt and just swap. I don't know what year your Runner is, but on the 1st gens the center pins are offset to allow the rear diff to sit back further under the truck.
As for locating it correctly on the axle, don't worry, you'll know if you don't have it in right because you're bottom spring will be sitting about .25 inch above the perch.
