Sinking Rear End - Over time?

Hi all,

I've had my Sy a few years now from 17k to now 72k and rear end is slowly sinking more and more. Have the non-stock 1" lowering blocks on the leafs in from earlier because the rear end was high to make it sit even when parked. Lately I feel like even when parked the rear end is sagging too much. Question is should I remove the blocks and see where it sits or bite the bullet for new leaf springs? Estimated costs for parts and any recommended vendors? Everything else on suspension is original including shocks,

Many thanks for any info, Pete

The shocks won't matter in the ride height. It's the rear leafs that have lost their spring. You cna have them re-arched or find some from a extreme pick-up, they are newer and the height should be pretty close to stock. Then you can play around with blocks again if you need tolower it.
