Pictures of K5's/Jimmys W/ 2" lift kits? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Jason915 · 05-10-2006, 02:15 PM

Just looking for picutres of Blazers and Jimmys with 2" lift kits. My Blazer sits 2WD low with the 2 leaf saging front leaf springs, so I am thinking of a Skyjacker 2" softride or a Tuff Country 2" EZ ride to adjust my stance. My tires are 265 75 R16's so I think that with a 2" they will still be fine

I'm curiouse to see a lift of that size as well. I believe Skyjacker is 2.5".

Here you go. 2.5" Skyjacker springs front and rear on 33 X12.5-15

2" Body Lift

Mike S. your skyjacker 2.5 looks just like the ride height on my GMC with a skyjacker 4". I really don't want to lift my Blazer as high as my truck. Did any factory Blazers come with 3 leaf front springs? Mine only has two leafs that are bowed backwards and only provide about 2" of room from the bumpstop on the frame.

***Edited by Moderator*** I'm putting a 14 bolt in my K5 and the existing 4" lift block is now way to high. 2" blocks would work perfectly.

I know I've said it before, even tho everyone involved is a subscribed member...it still applies. If you want to buy or sell do it on the Parts Board.

bouncytruck · 05-13-2006, 12:13 PM

you can see pics of my -72 with what is suppost to be a 4" lift and I'm running 235/85R16 tires. Probably more than you want, but it is a point of reference

No problem YJ. BTW I would post a pic of my blazer with what I think is a 2" lift, but I'm scared everyone will laugh at it (everyone who's seen it does).
