I too just saw your build and VERY impressive! Thinking for now I may do RC 2.5" and PA 2" lifts instead of having my truck torn down for many more months to install the V8, 6" lift and 2.5" RC lift. I'm planning 33's for mine, but 16" for actual wheels.

Do you have any closeup pics of what you trimmed on the front fenders and such?

This is the exact lift combo I want to do on my 01 black Blazer.

But for a daily driver I may stick with 31s or 32s because I'd rather not do any cutting.

Great looking rig!

There is one in my build. i followed most instructions from someone elses cuts on here. honestly there isnt much to cut before you get to the firewall.

Thanks!! I havent been on in a while have you done the lift? Since I built this I bought a ZR2 S10 with the 6" Superlift and I like the Rough Country 2.5" much better, much more stable

you're all distant neighbors to me. I'm in southern NH. Great looking Blazer! the more i look at other blazers on here with this lift combo the more excited i get to do mine. i'm trying to wait patiently for the warmer weather to come so i can start installing my body lift and RC 2.5" lift. i don't have tires yet, figured i'll thing about it once i get there.

How has your jimmy's front end held up to those 33's? I think my next set of tires might be 32x11.5's because theyre actually cheaper than 31's most places
