lifting and bigger tire tips
I am thinking about jacking up my blazer. since this is my first car,i dont know nothing about lifting one. so i have a few questions:
1. how much would a 2 in body lift and 31 in tires cost?( only 17 so i want as cheap as i can get but i want good quality too.)
2. would a 2in body lift make a big difference, apperance wise?
3.is it hard to install a lift by yourself?
im just looking for ideas and help with lifting my blazer.

2" body lifts are around $200 - $250. Look up "Performance Accessories" or "BDS" for body lifts for these trucks. Tires would set you back anywhere between $900 - $1300 depending on the brand and quality of tires.
2" BL, a mild T-bar crank and maybe some shackles, and then the new tires would definitely make a difference appearance wise.

I've bought the Performance accessories 2inch body lift for 210 plus 90 dollars shipping then customs charged me 50 dollars. Bought 2 inch shackles for 50 dollars shipped, all free instalation since I did it myslef and got a buddy to do the allignment for me. Shackles and torsion bar crank took probably about an hour, body lift took about 6 hours. Looked excellent after I was done, the only thing I haven't got yet was bigger tires but I'm working on it, pictures are in my profile.

Not trying to be an A## but many of your questions will be already answered. On this forum. Trust me I have spent hours researching. For tires paint.SAS etc. Good luck and welcome from TN
