Shackles with Old springs..Bad?

[scott93EB]

I am looking at the warrior shackles for the back, it's a 93 with 130000mi from some old people that had it, I'm guessing they didn't take it offroad a lot so it's not been thrashed. Anyway the rear seams to be a little saggy, not alot though. The shackles would be nice to restore that orig. ride height plus the extra height, but will this be bad if the old springs are not that great? I think it will gain hieght, but only magnify the crappy springs...so should i just get new springs instead? Thanks

try an add a leaf, might stiffen up the rear a little bit but will compensate for the saggyness, if you do that and it still isnt high enough, then get the shackels

Thanks, now to find which of those are best, unless you guys have reccomendations of the top of your head.

all the add a leafs kits are basically the same
