6 inch lift or 4 inch lift

[chevydude]

Hello I have these front leaf springs not sure if there 4 inch lift or 6 inch lift. It is on a 80 blazer. There is a defient arch I just can not tell how much lift there is. How can i tell they are defiantly aftermarket. they have red bushings and they are rancho. But i can not tell what kind Does anyone have a pic of a 6 inch front leaf spring so I can compare. Or a description of how much arch

Thanks

If bushings are red, good chance they are Rancho...their PN's are usually painted on top just about where the spring plate would go.

Considering paint might wear off it may even be stamped.... something like RS86206

Hard to tell when they are not installed. Look like 6 inch though.

They look close to my 6" springs on my floor. I'll try and get a pic for you.

Here this may help you. The more I look at yours, they look like 5 leafs when mine are 6. I'm thinking maybe you have the 4" pack.

Looks like 4" to me.

You should grease them. That's actually proper maintenance. DIY4X sells bolts with grease fittings in them and drilled sleeves to make this possible without disassembling them every time they need grease.

Replace-Add new teflon tabs at the ends of the leaves.....

The front-upper-shackle-hangers might need attention too. Squeaking ain't good.
