Pics and specs of lifted blazers

[RLONG]

6" with 39.5x15

[csa daddy]

yeah ive seen zero rate blocks before its just from the pic it looked like a 2inch block was all do you need them to put the newer springs on the front of the blazer or what

[bigbadchev72]

I had mine for the extra lift from my old 84 the springs originally came off of. The wheel was about an 1.5" back towards the firewall so if you wanted the wheel centered in the opening then yes you do need them

6" all spring lift/ trussed dana44/ Eaton h052/ 4:56/ 350/sm465/205

[vtblazer]

Tire size?

Any idea as to why it sits so much lower in the rear?

Are you running cross over steering with the 6" lift?

[cleszkie]

6-inch Superlift (springs all four corners), CV rear drive shaft, drop drag link, 35 x 12.50 x 16.5 Parnelli Jones Dirt Gripz (measure a true 35 inches).

[70 beast]

for now im running a 38"

the springs came off my pops work truck so the rear got used alot. he went down to a 4" so i snatched up the 6"
no crossover but it will be in the future.

87 K5
4" lift,all suspension,no body
36x12.50-17LT TSL SX

[Bull72]

4" suspension with 35x12.5 tires on 8" wide rallys

The pic in the middle is the same truck before painting the body and the rally's. I think the unpainted rally's with beauty rings actually look bigger, but it is the same setup.

[wildearp]

Sold as a 3" lift, but actually added close to 5" in the front. 33x12.50x15 tires. Well, 5' with a small block. Probably 4" with the BBC that is in the photo.

10 inch ralley wheels made and put on 32x11.50 tires. when I bought the blazer it was advertised having a 4 inch Rancho lift but I think it's more like a 2 1/2 or 3 inch lift

aaahhhh.... much better .. did you cut the front fenders? do you have pics? I was thinking about doing this to mine as well....

[ol' yeller 72]

yeah i cut my fenders. i took painters tape and lined it up with the bottom of the grill and follow it with the body lines, then i took off the grill and used a die grinder with a cut off wheel to trim the fender cups off. its easier to take the grill off so you can make a clean straight cut on the back side of the fender.

Does it still attach to the core support? I looked at mine and thought it would end up unsupported.... nothing to hold it from moving around...

[ol' yeller 72]

No that section of the fender does not attach to the core support.the upper and middle sections of the fender will support the core support and keep it from moving around on you.
