How can you easily tell how much lift your lift springs are? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

So I need to replace my rear leaf springs which currently also have a 4" BLOCK as well. I bought the blazer from a guy who told me there was 6" suspension lift and 3" body lift (so total of 9")

So...if I remove the 4" block shouldn't that mean that I should order 6" rear leaf springs (to get rid of block)??

..OR should I go with 4" springs and see what happens (perhaps add 1-2" block if needed)??

Trying to keep cost down so don't want to have to keep buying different u-bolts etc...
