I didn't notice a difference after I lifted mine. Maybe a little stiffer...but I think it might have been my imagination. The ride was much improved when I installed my shock absorbers. However, I was riding on the original ones and they were worn out to say the least. I have lifted mine, my wife's, and my brother's ZR2 truck with he same shackles and amount of torsion twisting. I have heard no complaints.

 

my blazer rides pretty much the same too. shocks defiantly help especially if you had old ones

 

yea im thinking they are gonna have to be replaced too, thats good to know about the lift tho, you dont feel any more body roll im assuming?

 

a blazer is going to have some body role even when it is stock height. it wasn't any different untill I took off my rear sway bar now it leans on turns

 

yea i was just wondering if it was any worse...thanks lol im sure ill be back with more questions



btw all your trucks are badass

 

I put over-load springs on the rear of mine at the same time that I removed my rear sway bar and I cannot even tell that it's gone when I'm on the road.

 

I have heard of a lot of people pulling out the rear sway bar. What is gained from doing that?

 

it doesn't really help much with anything and the rear axle is a lot more flexible without it

 

Yeah, I can't tell any difference with my rear sway bar gone...pointless.

Plus I can do this now:

 

I havent had my rear sway bar on my truck for about 3 months and the only time i can tell its not there is when I have a long circle on ramp to a highway. But for me i can deal with a little body roll, and you have better articulation with out it. And i also made my front sway bar disconnectable for when I do some major offroading so i can get the most out of my IFS. Try driving with out the tront sway bar and then you will know the meaning of body roll.
