I've seen better. If you're not going with a full bore lift, fix, or restoration, maybe just pop some add-a-leaf springs in there for a boost.

NEVER used these guys, but they were the first thing to pop up, for example/reference.

He's saying that he has never used them. And what do you mean resto? Like leaf pack rebuild? Cheaper to buy new leaf springs.

Ohhh I though it was a typo, and what I meant was resto like buying new stock packs. Any idea what that costs?

Look around on eBay. Are you 4wd? If so you could remove the rear block and just buy lift springs. It's a much better set up and discourages the hell out of axle wrap.
