And, yes, I can look at a Blazer, Jimmy, S-10 or Sonoma and be able to tell you if it is a ZR2 or a clone. Really not hard to tell the difference.

hmmm I'm still confused about the single cabs since they had the 98+ headlights. Both I see are red with black flares so are they clones? I would think i'd be fairly easy to put zr2 flares and 31's on a single cab

like zedartwo said. you cant make a standard blazer a ZR2. They have different frames, suspension, fenders, and rear quarters. For lifting it do a search. There is a whole list of options for you. There is not a 4in lift. You can do a 2in bodylift and crank the tbars 1.5in and put shackles in the back.
they don't have different frames, just front suspension & mounting points (don't be starting that debate again! it was like 3 or 4 pages llast time)
and besides the debate about making a "cloned" ZR, where are you gonna find the flares? i've only ever come across one complete set of them, and i was nice enough to steer a fellow member to them.
@ the OP; if you wanna go big, you're gonna have to be prepared to pay a bit.

Not to mention the ZR2 flares won't fit on a regular S-series. Bushwackers are your only option and they will be from $400 to beyond, unless you wanna do a lot of hacking.
Leaf spring hangers are an easy way to tell a ZR2 from a non-zr.

I went and checked and I know a guy that has a '99 regular cab ZR2, so I stand corrected on them ending in '98.
Very easy way to tell if it is a ZR2 or not on someone's ride that you just happen to see is to look up in the front wheel wells. ZR2 will be stamped in there. Along with a number of other ways to tell.
But, reg cab ZR2's do indeed exist.

fair enough.
but what's stopping me from finding a ZR roll-over (i've come across 2 actually), buying, stripping off the damaged body, and dropping on a "normal" Blazer body?
hell, i'll even stretch it a bit, and slip it under my 4 door!
wouldn't be the first time i stretched a truck.
