Well there site still says they are unsure on the release date. I know Verno's truck was the first one and they were using it basically as a test dummy. So the could get all their measurements and see how they wanted to build it.

I know Diversified was talking about making the kit for each model Blazer and S10. ZR2's, non Zr2's, and 4 doors

ok whats the difference in the 2 door in 4 door besides the wheel base and of course the 4 doors. I have always been under the impression that all makes and models different trim levels as far as 2 door or 4 door are equal with the exception of of course the longer wheel base.

I know with Jeeps the 2 door XJ and the 4 door XJs are identical as far as front suspension. only difference is two doors is missing and a shorter wheelbase.

Is this not the same for blazers?

well the frame is longer and is most likely different in the front between the 4 and 2 doors.

The frame being longer would have nothing to do with the front axle as both are the same width. Only thing a longer frame would create would be a longer wheelbase. I am 99.999999% positive a 4 door and a 2 door share all the same components other than the extra 2 doors.

Besides , there is no such thing as a bolt on SAS. You have to have some fab skills, if you have enough fab skills to weld a kit on then you have anough to fab up your own brackets imo

true....but some people rather spend more money than to use a little creative thinking.

I will probably do a SAS but im gonna just go with a HP D30 from a cherokee. The D30 will be more than enough for the type of wheeling my blazer will see.

But the D30 will have chromoly shafts and spicer u joints just incase haha
