I'm not particularly pleased with the amount of lift in the rear.. mine's 
never sagged though.. it started out this low. :-(

I've been thinking about getting some 4" Triangle rear springs to replace 
the Skyjackers w/ 2"+ shackles.. but then I remember I have a welder now, 
and I can just as easily use a set of non-XLC rear leaf springs on  top 
of the axle to balance things out... ;)

I think, if I were to lift w/ spring under again, I'd look at the 
Triangles with a lot more interest..
