Default Sagging spirngs, wanting a lift.

Well, my rear springs are sagging. I have 30x9.5" tires which fit just fine, however, my shocks do not shock very well, and I would like a little more ground clearance.

Any kits out their that include rear springs? If not, how much would a set of new stock springs or 2 inch springs cost me?

Best bet would be to replace your non-shocking shocks and add an add-a-leaf or some 1.5 or 2 inch shackles. But, first, make sure none of your spings are cracked.

One other thing I should mentions. It is a 1994 blazer 4 door 4wd with 217K miles. One side is lower than the other as well. Could this be the shock on one side?

Links to good add a leafs and shackles, or shocks that can go with a lift?

(waits for vets to tell me to use search) I'm having a hard time finding the actual places to purchasea 2 in shackle, shocks that work with a 2 inch lift, and which add a leafs I should get.

I checked, my rear is about 1.5" lower than my front.

try Synergy offroad for shackles. I got the 2 inch fabtech. The oem shocks will work with 2 inch. I also need shocks, and was wondering if there are some slightly longer that would be better.

If your springs are sagging bad. The same problem I amhaving. Call around to some junkyards for a price. I got a 98 4dr 4x4 and found some here for $40. Just a tought. Then get your add-a-leaf at the same time.
