Re: Rough Country 4" Lift question

I have a set of 4" springs in the back of my Jimmy I put in circa 1990. They raised the truck 4".... These new springs aren't any where close to 4" lift. Neither pair. Both are HD truck springs. If I climb my 200# up on the trailer hitch, it might sag 1/4". Loaded all of the old parts and spare parts in the back of the truck and it was still too high.

Too high to work with the stock driveshaft and too high to work with the 4" shocks that came with the kit. Something with these springs is whacked IMO.
