Re: '95 S-10 Pickup Rear Springs

Most stock S-10 pickups I see have a 3 + 1 setup with 3 curved leafs and one flat overload leaf. On the other hand, the couple times I have seen a regular cab that looks like a '95 they seem to have only 3 leafs without the overload leaf. Does anyone here have a '95 regular cab with 4x4 and a 6' bed that knows what the stock leaf configuration is? The added leaf is so thick and stiff I have about reached my limit after a couple years of driving. Thanks.
I got a 94 s10 pickup 4.3L vin z 5sp.

this has 3 leaf springs plus 1 thicker flat spring on the bottom ..vehicle height is slightly higher in the rear than front. don't know if this is stock as built oem but it looks original. just replaced shackles both sides rear .

so what is your problem ? if rear looks too high it may mean the front is too low.
