axle flip on 02 zr2 blazer

[monsteram]

right  im thinking of makin the blazer into a nice lifted daily and buying a old beater and beating the hell out of it  and if it breaks i aint gotta worry about not having a vehicle

Honistly about the same price to do a sas on it then to go out and buy a nice lift for it....plan on spending about 1500bux just on the lift.  Then you will need new drive shafts and lots of other stuff.....and that price don't include labor.  Imo its kinda pointless to lift it just for looks.

I just never understood why people put all this cash into these big beefy truck and just use them as a pavement pounder?? might just be me but whats the point?

The only way you are going to life an S-10 and never have any major issues with it is to spend the big bucks on a real lift kit. Your going to drop $1000 or more.
Don't waist your time using that flip kit kit in the rear. I have seen and heard horror stories when the Spring perch snaps and axles spins the pinon up and breaks . As for the front its alot of work to lift one the right way T-key life just ware the hell out of your tires and and kill ball joints. You plus all the other lift kits that don't drop the front axle are junk and wear out CV shafts, ball joints and hubs.

Best be with an S10/Sonoma/Blazer/Jimmy is to just do a 3 inch body lift and get the gap guards for it

I just put a BDS 4.5'' in my 90' s10 it dropped everything down to stock drive angles in the front end, the rear was just the axle flip, its under the leafs now and everything sits pretty level. BDS is kinda pricey, I got mine used, but the guarantee all their parts for life, no questions asked.

Yes deff go bds.  There the best and made in michigan!!

now if i don't do a straight axle and just do a 6inch lift with 3inch body lift  will it look pretty tall or

[Blazin40s]

it will easily clear 35s with 11 inch lift.  But plan on spending 3 grand on everything with a shop installing a good lift....then u still gott buy tires and rims

[mariozoldos]

3in body lift/tt<(all the way)/shakols/ some trimming should clear 35s ON ZR2s
$100-$400 parts

ALL CAN BE DONE IN THE DRIVE WAY IN 8-24HRS
