I recently replaced a pair of second-hand leaf springs on my '92 Nissan
Pickup (one of the leaves was broken). I immediately noticed an improved
ride quality from the rear suspension. However, the rear now sticks up
about 1" higher than the front.

Can anyone recommend an easy way to level the front end that is also
affordable and won't sacrifice ride quality (...and could possibly improve
the front end suspension)?

Those rubber spring inserts work and are cheap.

You have torsions bars in front, if not done yet they can be screw up, there
is a nut on them, behind the gearbox

Peter,

I am a little confused by your reply. Do you mean to say that by adjusting
the nut on the torsion bar, I can raise the front suspension the 1" or so I
need to level the truck?

But yes you can raise the front
If you look under the car you can see where the torsion bars end, there is a
little arm whit screw and nut and you will see what i mean.

Yeah and I recommend washing the adjuster arms with a wire brush + water
first to get the dirt off the threads. Let it dry, then soak them w/ WD40
so you keep the dirt from locking them up. Also, check the fender to tire
clearances with a ruler to get both sides even.
