I can measure my sagging Rancho 3" springs.

You want all 4, just front, just rear?

Rancho 3" Springs (Compressed Length):

Front: ~ 14 1/2"
Rear: ~ 10 1/2"

That's a pretty rough measurement. I couldn't find anything but a ruler before I went out to measure. Also understand that my rear springs have sagged quite a bit.

Anyone have the lengths? I'm trying to guesstimate how much lift a 3.5" spring will give if put in the rear. Trying to come up with about 6" worth of lift.
