'99 4x4 4 door blazer sagging in the rear
I added a leaf from a 2nd gen 4 leaf pack, stiffened it up a bit and I also added a 2 inch shackle lift. (more like 1 though)
I have an amp under the pass seat, an amp inside the gailgate on the pass side, a t1 10 inch sub in a sealed enclosure on the pass side, and finally my spare tire carrier with bfg at on the pass side. Needless to say I sag about an inch on the pass side even after a couple added threads on the tbar bolt.

"more like 1 though" that's right, a 2" shackle will only give you 1" of lift becaues it's only pushing down half of the leafspring.
You always have the options of air bags, leveling kits, add-a-leafs etc. Depends how much you want to spend & get into it. Also what future mods you may be doing as well. Why toss $140 at a new set of leafs if later on you're going to be doing a leaf over mod?!

check out your shocks: over time (and under load) they start to give up the good fight. Gravity always wins.
Check you leaf springs. are they bowed ~ on the far end? like was mentioned, might be time for a new set of springs (jy 4 pack = $75) or an add-a-leaf
also mentioned, if you have the cash, toss in a bag. then you can set the ride height to where you like it, and bonus, when you're hauling the loaded river boat, you can pump it up a bit and not look a dog with an itchy a-hole.
