Default ESPO Springs?

My 72 Cuda has Mopar heavy duty leafs, but they are sagging. Must be Mexican specials. I'm thinking of getting some heavyduty springs from ESPO, and asking for ones that would give 2 inches higher ride in the rear, to help clear my tires. Anyone done this? How did it work out? Thanks

I did the 1 inch overs for my Duster. So far, I like'em.

I got regular units for my '79 Magnum. So far, there just fine on the everyday ride. Though I think I'd like more lift.

Is the 1 inch lift noticable, or do you need to go at least 2 inches to notice it? Or, will 2 be too much. I figure they would sag a little over time?

The inch is noticable. 2 for big tires. Sag over time will happen I'm sure, but it hasn't really happened yet for me.
After the intail install, there was a slight drop. Very slight. No worries for me.
