88' Rear lift

I have a current build thread on here, But i figured if i posted a new thread i might get some decent advice. I'm really stuck on deciding what i want to do with the rear on my truck. I am going to lift it. But im having trouble deciding if i want to mount longer springs , Or if there is lift springs on the market at the same length of my own. Any input is appriciated !

If your going to start a new thread about this, dont do it in the build up section, do it in the year specific or fab shop forums, thats why your not getting a lot of responses. Also, gotta wait more than an hour for a response.

We need some other info. What springs do you have now? How much lift are you after? Whats your hesitation on mounting longer springs?

Yea Chevys are a no go , no hesitation . just seeing as to what'd out there. Someone had told me that a company makes lift springs that you can use your stock mount with and just use a linger shackle. And its stock at the moment. But Im in the process of doing an SAS , with 5" springs up front . I want it to sit a little lower in the rear though .

5" springs as in the 5" tg kit? Expect about 8-9 inches of TOTAL lift when your are done with that.

Superlift makes stock length lift springs, but they dont flex well.
