suspension help
When I bought my 79 blazer some of the leaf springs were taken out I noticed when I go over speed bumps or when four people sit in the back the back end bottoms out. I hate that it does that but I like the way the truck sits. My question is if left the leaf springs the way they are and installed a belltech flip kit and some good shocks would it prevent the back end from doing that.

Not enough springs lowers the weight capacity of the truck. You would need the stock # of springs w/a flip kit but it still might bottom out.
If you like the way it rides as is, get some helper air bags to compensate for added loads. Best of both worlds.
