You don't know what you are missing not having that top off

It'll give you a whole new side of the Blazer to love...

Hey does this blazer look lifted? it is said to have 33 inch tires and a 4 inch lift? but it lokos stock height like mine i think?

I was thinking of buying this as a parts blazer it has everything besides a motor? I could use those lights mounted to the roof for a bumper i am planing on building, the seats i need really bad tore my pants geting out of the blazer today,lift if it has one, and those m/t would be nice to have also.....

What do you think?

Tuff Country EZ ride fronts, shackle flip rear...

Springs to stay away from if you like your kidneys:

Rancho
Pro-Comp
Rough country
Superlift

I have Superlift, got them used for next to nothing. I still feel like I overpaid. The ride is quite harsh.

This is the ck5 special. Works great and minimizes many problems to plague these trucks.
Add a set of zero rates and a 1 inch body lift to basically have a six inch lift which fits 37s very well.

 

[chrisquested]

aww man i didnt even notice you typed tuff country springs for some reason....Dang sorry about that. Let me go find the cheapest site that sells a shackle flip,springs ect....

Thanks i am enjoying this thing alot. But when i was going up and down the hills and the truck was flexing i would feel it rub alot.......And i might need a back right tire because once i get up to a certain speed it starts to bounce in the back.
