Default A Temporary fix

So my rear has started to sag, and I'm looking in to a temporary fix. I'm saving now for a lift kit, but I want to know if there is anything that can help out the sag while I'm saving up. I've looked into spring helpers, some add a leafs, but I don't know which route to go! If you guys could help me out that would be great!

so spring helpers, will help. but it will also worsen the ride, and they wont help that much. an add a leaf 9 times out of 10 will bring it up too much. just ride on the saggy leafs. it will help u put more money tward the lift.

You can always get blocks. Cheap and effective

I did that once and it made the leafs frown worse.

Leave it be until you can get springs. Doing temp fixes now is like putting a band-aid on a bazooka wound.
