So I want to lower my FJ60...

IF you have someone with a harbor freight press it is really easy to de-arch the springs, youtube search "re-arch leaf springs" and reverse it, take the 2 smaller springs and just take a little arch out of them that way you still have the load carrying capacity just a little lower ride height.
 
Or if you have access to a good set of stock springs, keep the newer/longer OME top leafs (top 2 or 3) and replace the bottom ones with the flatter stockers. That way you can lose the height and keep the spring rate for when you put the winch on :meh:.
 
The first two leaves don't do much as far as lift or arc go . I'd try a set of stock springs with maybe the 3rd and 4th springs from the emu packs . I'd change them all back to stock springs if you have a decent set . Including the rears , stock springs SOA is totally fine with 35's . How is the caster set ? Was it cut and turned or is there a shim in there ? Might change your caster a bit depending on what you ultimately do . I do agree it looks high in the front .
