I hate it too, that's why I'm doing the add-a-leaf. Got the passenger side done last night and gained 1". Doing the driver's side this weekend to finish it out.

i had a squatted blazer once:



oh wait...no i didn't:



To me the only time that its acceptable to have the front higher than the back is when you're bagged and you have to air up to get over speed bumps and such. LOL

My leaf springs were flat, so the add-a-leaf was necessary first. I'll do shackles next. Wanna do the Ball Joint flip with spacers on the front first to see how much lift I can get, then match the rear shackles.

If you have a 4x4 blazer with 141k on it like mine the leaf springs in the rear wear out and it squats on its own lol.

I've always heard it called cali lean. Either way, it looks like trash.
