Hi Guys,

I just got my first truck ever and a couple of the shocks are blown. I need to figure out if it's lifted to order new ones and I don't really know what I'm looking for. I know there aren't spacers on the front springs but that's about all I know. It has Pro Comp Explorer ES 9000 shocks on it now.

It's a 1997 1500 Sport with a 5.2L. Tires are 265/75/16.

Any help is appreciated :)

You dont have a lift. Regular shocks will work but your spring leafs are worn out. I just posted a thread about my leaf springs but I found out they are worn out. The back of your truck is sagging.

The rear shock on that side is blown. Would that make it sag?

No it wouldnt. The leaf springs are the ones that keep the back of your truck lifted. But get a new shock also

Been looking at the side pic for a little while here and wondering if its sagging in the rear just from the typical driver side extra weight
