Pics of 4" on blazer?

I am pretty sure that I have talked myself into a 4" lift. I will be towing more frequently that I will be wheeling. I am still interested in running 35"s. Would like to see a couple pics of 73-89 Blazer or Jimmy with that combination. Thanks.

First, welcome to the board from Seattle.

I'm not sure that a 4" lift will be enough for 35's on a '73+ unless you run skinny tires or do some trimming. You may need to go to 6", at least that is the combo I see most often.

Check out ColoradoK5.com and Pirate4x4.com too. There are lots of guys with lifted Blazers on both of those sites. Coloradok5 has quite a few members in the Portland/Vancouver area too. The down side is you have to pay $25/year to use that site.

My '72 has a 4 inch suspension and 35's on it. No trimming at all and drives on the freeway like a champ. But it's for sale too, there are pictures of it on the Trucks For Sale board. Here's the link to it. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s....php3?t=164172
