I have a set of 2" AAL's and a set of K-5 Blazer leaf packs... Any suggestions on putting them together... Id like to get 6" or more... thanks
i haven never heard of using a blazer leaf pack to build a bastard pack. i would think it would be pretty stiff and not flex well because thos leafs are designed for a much heavier vehical. but its worth a shot maybe some1 on here has more input on the blazer pack. common spring pack to use is a dodge dakota rear springs or s10. something i have wanted to try is a wagoneer front spring pack. the fronts are under sprung so the spring packs have alot of arc to them and they are fairly thin leaves so it should flex good. hope this helps.

U can make a pack out of any leafs they just need to be the right length and width, just a matter of putting them together to see how much lift to get, keep ur xjs main leaf and cut the eyes off the blazers leaf and place it under ur main one, then maybe add another leaf or 2 under that see how much that gives you, again it will prob be pretty stiff tho

for older (4x4) s-10...
keep xj main only,
cut the eyes out of s-10 main and use that and the next 3 under it
gave 4x4Dalton 4.5" of lift.
u can't just cut back measuring off the center hole because they do not share the same distance axle to the shackle vs. axle to frame mount.
also, it would be a great idea for the s-10 main to go about 1/4" past the xj main on each end.
