2002 4wd LS Blazer...looking to cure the rear sag...add-a-leafs or shackles? What would be easier for me to do in my driveway? Let me know.

I guess thats all what you are looking for? The add-a-leaf will lift the rear plus give it a stiffer suspention, and the shackles with lift it and keep the same stock ride in the rear. So its up to you.

Cool...but which would be an easier driveway job...I'm limited on tools. I mean, I have more than a hammer and a monkey wrench...just curious to see what would be easiest for me.

shackles will be an easier driveway job as you dont have to completely remove the spring. Just detach one end and swap shackles. With add-a-leaf, you have to remove the spring and add one more leaf to the stack. .
