I just bought a 2002 Chevy Blazer Xtreme 4.3 V6 with less then 50,000 miles. I bought it off of a friend who's father had Alzheimer's disease and could not drive anymore. The Blazer is in pretty good shape with a few issues.

One of the issues that I'm having is that the Blazer is leaning toward the drivers side. I have not had a chance to have a mechanic to look at yet. Could the spring or shock on the drivers side need replacing?

Thanks for any help that you can give me!

 

Welcome from Kentucky!

 

Does anyone have any ideas what it could be causing the leaning issue? I will try to post pictures later so you can see what I'm talking about.

 

well im not completely sure if the extremes are any different but if they are the same as the normal blazers then it is possible that one of the torsion bars running from front to back on that side is damaged.

 

If this is the case, how much would that cost to fix? Does the torsion bar come on 2WD? My Blazer is a 2WD not a 4WD.

 

well if im correct and the 2wd do have torsion bars then you would probably want to find one the same size from a blazer near the same year in a junk yard. i dont think they are very easy to replace either, but ask some other people because i am not positive 2wd have torsion bars

 

Thanks BlazerGuy2001 for the quick replys! I did a google search for torsion bars for the 02 Blazer. Only thing I have found was torsion bars for 4WD not 2WD. I will post a picture here on the forum in a few days.

 

I am sorry to say that the 2wd Blazer uses front coil springs and not torsion bars.You may choose an icon for your message from the following list:
