towing with my mazda (sagging)
towing with my mazda (sagging)
So Ive got 33's on stock suspension...(tbar crank) and with one 4 wheeler in the bed (370 lbs) and a 5x10 open trailer with a four wheeler in it (370lbs) my truck sags so bad that it rubs on some medium sized bumps on the rear of the flares....Im thinking a bodylift later down the road but for now what else can I do
add a leafs? can I use 2wd add a leafs? I dont want to have the front alot lower than the rear though are torsion keys any good?

You can put in Airbags or overload coils. You should keep the stock height but be able to pack more weight on your truck ..
Airbags are the best route to take because you can adjust the preasure to meet your needs..

airbags sound expensive....I got a hitch but if i bodylifted it I would raise the hitch....im only using a drop 2" (standard drop) if I switch to more of a drop hitch will that help? my dad flipped his hitch upside down for a no drop hitch to pull his trailer with a heavy tounge weight on it
what kind of shocks??
are the 2wd aal's the same as the 4x4...seeing as 4 wheelparts is opening up next saturday Im going to get some aal's....If i sell the blazer between now and then Ill be getting a bodylift and install also...
as far as I know my shocks are stock

do you think I would notice the difference in power with the tuner?

This is a picture is of my Bronco with a add a leaf in the back around two years after it was done, it does stiffen your ride and give you a couple of inches but it will calm down to a nice rake of about an inch or so higher in the rear. If you don't want the extra height you may want to just put in some overload springs.
