Title: Help Needed: Can you tell by this photo how tall my lift is?
Post by: plik on June 03, 2016, 01:02:48 pm

I bought a suburban with a lift. I took a photo of the back, which has a 2.5 inch block. I'm not sure if there's an extra leaf in there (the blue part in the second photo).

Anyway, how many inches is my lift?

It's probably just a 2.5 inch lift. The spring in blue is factory.

The blue spring is an overload spring and its factory.  For a better ride and safety get arched lift springs instead of the lift blocks.   If you must keep the blocks, steel is better than aluminum.  My cousins lift blocks shattered and his rear end came loose on the first Offroad trail!
