Default S-10/blazer springs for bastard pack

so i've been looking at a lot of posts for Bastard packs but i was just curious... what years of s-10/blazers or dakotas does this work with. that seems to be the one thing that isn't mentioned. does it matter? or is there a certain year range that needs to be used? Thanx guys!

Can't help on the dakota. But for S-10 any year will work.

shouldn't matter, so long as the springs go under the axle not on top like on XJs.

a heavier truck will have more heavy duty springs though.

I think when i did mine lift with S10 springs they measured 2.5 across so any leaf springs will work just as long as they are 2.5 across.

2xs. Get any [under or over] as long as they are 2.5 wide. You cut the eyelet off so it does not matter.I did an s-10 pack to mine too and love them.

I bought Dakota springs for mine, but ended up doing a kit. If you need a set of springs for a bastard lift (<- Springs that have already been checked for a Cherokee) I got them!!
