hey guys i have a parts list of stuff i have and want to make sure right now before i tear my rig apart this will make sense.

FRONT - 10" Total
8" superlift spring
1" Lift shackle (2" longer than stock)
1" zero rate

REAR - 10.5" Total
8" tuff country spring
2.5" ORD shackle flip

how would i sit about? any one have pics of a 10" blazer.
i have 35s right now, but i am planning to move to 38.5-40" swampers. thanks a lot guys. ps, im not a paying member so i cant view pictures hosted here. thanks.
 
You really don't want to use a front shackle that is 2" longer than stock. The reason is that will change your caster angle and probably make it a mess to steer properly. I would only go with a 1/2" longer shackle like ORD sells but it will only give you a 1/4" of extra height. Me personally, i like the rear to sit a little higher than the front.
 
right now im rockin a 10b up front and 12 out rear... i scored a dana 60 front and 14b out back both locked (detroit) and 4.56s... they are 6 lug 3/4 ton and i got them free from my dads friend who set up a 1 ton... nice!

No such thing, you sure they aren't one ton or a 14bSF and a d44?

No such thing as said above. All D60 front are 1 ton and 8 lug, and a 14ff is also 8 lug but came in both a 3/4 ton and 1 ton. A D60 will have 4 bolts holding the steering arm on and also they only use 3 U-bolts and 2 5/8 x 11 bolts on the pumpkin side of the diff on the passenger side. If you look at the front cover and down to the lower right hand corner it should say D60F.
