Default Should I Lift?

I am new to the Blazer forum. I tow a 20ft boat and I'm looking at bigger boats. I would like to get rid of the sagging hind end of my Blazer. What do you guys recommend? I would like to "stiffen" up the suspension, possibly lift the Blazer, but without compromising towing capability. I will post some current pics with the boat behind it as soon as I get a chance. Maybe like a 3" lift? Any suggestions are welcome.

Thanks

I think the Add-a-leaf stiffens the ride while adding height to the rear end...


Here is another topic about lifting and towing https://blazerforum.com/m_111848/tm.htm

Actually the add a leaf will lift the rear of the truck. Usually only 1-1.5 inches though so its not entirely drastic. If you got saggin leafs though this will help it out.

As for towing, like i posted in the other thread, since the add a leafs will stiffen things up you wont have nearly as much "trailer sag" on the rear when the trailer is connected.
