Hey man. The only info I have on them from Kurt is that they're 3/4 ton leafs with a slanted shim in the center that allows the axle to center properly. They are very good condition. They hardly look used at all, though I have no idea of usage time, etc. I will check to see if there's a mfr name in them. What classifies them as 'lift' vs. 'leaf'? Just the length?

They are leaf springs, the lift would be vs. stock hight springs. The arch in the springs is what gives it the lift. They look to be a lifted arch since they have the shims. If there is any info you could get off them that would be perfect. Also if the arch is taller then stock that would be good but I would have to know how much lift it has. Also shipping to 28327. Thanks, if it turns out that they are a 4" lift spring I will definitely take them.

Can you measure the shifter to see what the height is from where it mounts to the floor up to the top of the shifter? I would also like to see a side profile pic of the shifter.

dujobu · 02-23-2012, 12:23 AM

Here are a couple pics of the lift springs next to my stock springs. They're definitely arched quite a bit more. When I stacked them like this, the lift spring is 5" taller at center than the stock spring. Not sure if that equates to a 5" lift, or less, or what. Is that helpful? Here are the pics…

Any chance there was a steering wheel in decent shape?

dujobu · 02-24-2012, 04:29 PM

Sorry for the delay. Had to get a box big enough. Parcel Post is $20. So $70 total. Can you PayPal the payment to me? PayPal email address is dustin_burchnall@comcast.net. Let me know.

Thanks for the pics, but I'm going to have to pass on these since we can't figure out the amount of lift they have. I don't want to take the chance of having the wrong amount of lift.

No idea how to tell the amount of lift for sure?

47thriftmaster · 02-24-2012, 05:30 PM

Yah, I don't know how it could be done either. Maybe someone will chime in to let you know how to figure that part out. I will ask in the blazer section for you. Thanks

boonedogs72 · 02-24-2012, 07:15 PM

47thriftmaster · 02-24-2012, 09:05 PM

I was hoping for 4" lift springs

Bump for the wheel.

dujobu · 02-24-2012, 10:10 PM

There is a wheel, but I believe it's taken. Will check with my buddy John and let you know.

Do you have the lower backing plate for a swing away tire carrier? Gary70Jimmy thought you might. Thanks, Jeff.

dujobu · 02-25-2012, 05:43 PM

I have 2 sets of complete doors, but both have issues in different spots. So I have to go over them and figure what I'm keeping form which doors. I'll have to get back to you. I don't have any of the other stuff on your list. Sorry. Good luck.

The one that goes on the inside of the bed? If so, yes I believe I do. Will have to dig it up and get you a pic.

I'm sorry I've been so slow on this. Having a heck of a time finding a box large enough. Trying to get my hands on 2 bicycle boxes, but will be another couple of days before the local shop has them for me. Will get back to you as soon as I get 'em.

Yes, the lower one is the one I need. Gary's didn't have that part of it.
