looking for pic of 2" lift with 33's

trying to save some cash on my blazer build. so instead of buying lift springs i was thinking a 2" or 3" body lift will work for what i plan to do. just wanted to see a pic if anyone has this setup or something close. thanks

Just use 8" wheels and skip the body lift.Cheaper yet.

Re: looking for pic of 2" lift with 33's

Body lifts are ugly in my opinion. Save a few $ and get a lift kit. It is possible to run 33's without a lift. You could also look for used lift kits on sites like CK5.com, Pirate4x4.com, ebay and craigslist.

Re: looking for pic of 2" lift with 33's

blue_69, try the search function and see what you might find, there's a fair number of post's on this very topic that should come up.

Relocating the bumpers is always an interesting project but leaving them alone is just not an option.

Re: looking for pic of 2" lift with 33's

This has a 2 inch body lift on and 33's in this picture. I recomend springs. You get alot of top roll in corners with just a body lift.

Re: looking for pic of 2" lift with 33's

the 33's fit much better than i thought they would without the lift maybe i will go that route. I havent decided on what rims i want yet so i will have to do some measuring. This is how she looked when i got her 35's and 4" lift springs in front and blocks in the back. I plan to drive the truck so the 35's are a little much.
