When I did the 2 inch lift on my '96 I originally ordered the OME medium duty +2 springs from quadratec. Installed with a full tank of gas, a 2x4 wood platform rack on top, and a couple of sandbags and a full-sized spare in the back I had a measured 4 inches of lift. With time they probably would have settled some, but I sent them back for the light duty pack which gave a perfect 2 inch lift. After about a year, they haven't sagged or settled at all. Good springs.
Otherwise, like I said I was planning on adding 2" lift shackles or relo brackets, so if they give me 4" I probably won't complain.

Went to check out winding stairs road today and this happened. Limped it down the mountain and pulled into a vato-zone and luckily they had one for $17.

Tied a tire to the front so i can push people since it's snowing. Just incase i run into someone's eurobox, they tend to break down in snow apparently.
Some horrible picture taking for you...

Measured from center of axle to bottom of factory fender flare. Don't remember off hand what that measurement is stock, it's on here somewhere, but it was that measurement +4 with the OME medium duty spring pack.
