Rough Country Lift Kit question

[PrairieDrifter]

For all you guys that have rough country lifts, possibly specifically for the 4 inch lift. There is a plus sign on front the leaf springs, so I need to know if they mount on the core support side or the transfer case side of the axle?

I just bought the leafs and the drop steering arm for 150 bucks off my local buy and sell site, didn't come with instructions or anything else but it was a deal. Just that simple question lol, from all the pictures I could find it looks like the plus sign on the leafs should be on the transfer case side of the axle

On my 2" lift front springs I wasn't sure either since one side was longer but the front and rear shackle bolt eyes were different so I mounted them the same way my factory springs looked. And on the new lift springs one side was longer from the center pin/bolt in the spring pack and after measuring my stock ones I mounted the long side the same as factory. I don't remember if that was front or rear though. Get a tape measure and you'll find the right way.

Update: I just measured my 2" springs on my 88' 1/2 ton Suburban and the transfer case side of the spring is 1/4" longer than the front side.

The front bushing should be a little bigger.

i got the 4" for my 75. the frnt bushings are a lot bigger. didnt measure for length but it drives just fine.

but.....the 4" turned out to be 6" in the frt. driveshaft is now too short. that never happens with a real 4" kit.

the front bolts are 9/16 and the rear shackle are 7/16 my pinky finger fits somewhat in the front holes and not barely any in the back that's how I knew.
