Very nice! Did you run into any problems with the shifter cable/linkage? My body lifted Blazer doesn't shift through the gears fully, and I'm suspecting the Linkage wasn't adjusted with the lift.

Yours probably has the shift cable, and not the metal rod linkage. Thanks though!

What kind of ball joint spacers did you use? Have any problems with them?

No problems yet, Only issue was when I installed them I had to switch the bolts to nut on the bottom otherwise the bolt sticking out rubbed the rim. Offset rims would cure that though
