Getting the Wheeling Fever
I was looking at the marlin crawler website and on his full lift kit one of the parts it comes with is a 3/8" spring pad, but only one.I was wondering if anyone knows why it comes with only one and if you are supposed to use it with his springs

Need a Spot
Different spring perch heights on
the front axle. Passenger side is
real close to the pumkin. I thought
it was 1/4" difference from side to
side(heightwise anyway), that's
probably what that plate is for!!!

Ya, you weld that pad onto the driver's side perch to level things out.

The difference is approximately 3/8", hence the pad. Toyota made springs with different arches, the expense is not justified in most aftermarket springs.
