Sorry , this is my first blazer so total newbie with everything on these . Seller didn’t know much , he has bought it from someone else before I got it. Just was curious if anyone could tell from pics if this looks stock or maybe some small lift ? The tires pictured are 33’s. I actually don’t mind how it looks but I was considering replacing the leafs with some nicer softer riding ones and maybe some fox 2.0 reservoir shocks .
Tomorrow I will try and get under it and snap pics of the rear and front leaf springs currently on it .

Measure the front wheel lip to ground. I have measurements on my post when I upgraded my springs.

Look at the front springs, if they are flat or arched upward, they are stock style springs.
Lift springs arch downward.

The first few posts in my build thread show my 72 K10 stock height on 31's. Would be close to your Blazer. Your Blazer appears to be stock height to me, maybe an add-a-leaf or some thing else in the rear.. Fender well gap in front is less than mine. Gap would be about 1" less than mine doing the math. Off the shelf leafs will provide no better outcome. Deaver, Alcan or Atlas can provide something that will make a difference.

Stock springs.

33 x 10.5 tires. For comparison
