How does it compare to this:
 No lift, factory heavy duty front/rear springs, 325-60R15 tires on 15x10 rims. I did replace the front spring bushings and body mounts. If you only have 2 or 3 leaves up front probably stock and will have a reverse arch also I believe the front springs are 3" wide on each end and taper to 2.5" in the middle, most aftermarket springs are 2.5" wide the whole length of the spring. You can email me your picture if you want; jimandtamara@yahoo.com Hope this helps. ------------------ 1970 GMC K25 Custom Chesapeake, VA My 70 GMCor Webshots http://community.webshots.com/user/70gmc

Yep, I'm guessing 4" especially when you consider the stock springs have a slight reversed arch.

Definetly at least 4" because of the raised steering arm.

Yup, I'd say 4". You can see why many lift companies sell 6" rear springs with a 4" kit for Blazers.
