Xtrmes10 97 ZR2 Blazer build

Got one side of the steering setup. Once I get the other side and make sure everything is good I'll weld them up.
Went with 7/8 heims with 5/8 safty misalinement spacerd and 1" quarter wall tubing. Maybe a bit over kill but it should last forever.

If you don't mind me asking. How much is the coil over setup for the front all together. I just got a 1998 blazer

I need to replace the front and back springs and shocks. I wanted to know what the coil over setup cost you compared to getting new leafs and shocks. I dont currently have a lift or anything but i plan on putting a 2in body lift.

Its by no means a bolt in kit. I used QA1 shocks. Had to cut and modify the frame and replace the factory shock mounts. Also if you are using stock control arms they would have to be modified and strengthened. I have many hours of fabrication in making them work.
The shocks and springs aren't to bad price wise.
Around $500. Plus you will need mounts and such.

So today its sitting back on the ground for the first time in a year and a half. Still need to work on the alignment.
Not sure I'm going to keep the front sway bar or not.
Here's a pic of today's progress.
Now on to the rear.

I have a new set of 35" tires for it. Just have to put them on. I'm still be siding if I want new wheels first.
