Yup, first suggestion is check out the lifting thread on here.

when is the 5" rough country one coming out?

irocz, are you planning on making this a build thread? It's kind of warped into a more generalized lifting thread and I might move it to the lifting section

I'm planning on making a actual "install" thread w/ pics & any issues I run in to while I'm doing it so it'll be alittle more specfic to the actual lift its self. so I'd say move it you want. lol

What do you want pics of? lol the kit isn't here yet.. so I don't really see any point in posting pics yet. If I missed somthing or you wonna see some thing let me know.

I am also going to be a contender to the testing of this lift. I'm ordering it possibly tonight. It looks solid- the diff comes with new hardware for the bracket and a template. Should be easy enough to do. I'm also investing in
airtools and a nice torsion key loading tool. I need a good way to get my shackle bolts out though, ansuggestions so that I can help y'all even quicker? =]

BFH and a fat center punch ;)

Let's see your truck photoshopped to be a possible "what it will look like" picture. You need something to do while you wait. :icon_playing:


Oh, and a picture of your current ball joint angles just in case you finish soon enough. :icon_photo:

^ good idea

Well I don't have photoshop nor & I really any good at that kinda stuff. But tom I'll post a front,rear,& side pics so you have an idea of before, thou I've already got 2in shackles & the t-bars cranked some. so IDK how big of a differance you'll actually see. Personally I bought the kit more for the A-arms at the time & Now the diff drop. So I don't think you'll see much differance from the outside IMO. But thats what the BL is for hopefully goin on next wkend.. still waiting on the kit.. :/
& Ball joint angles? remember I have the t-bars cranked but then alotta guys on here do so atleast it'll show the differance for them. lol

Btw, whats everyone's thoughts on not using the new T-keys in the kit. I've read alotta guys say they aren't worth the money on there own so Idk think they'll be that important in the actual lift its self.. thoughts? also has anyone else wondered about the driveshaft angle at all? I've always been told any lift over 3in's you should getta "custom" driveshaft made.. but Idk for sure how much "slide" the Blazers/Bravadas have. Do you think I should worry about it? jw
