Thanks for the input, I was kinda figuring on that! Feel free to enlighten me on what I'm about to have problems with.

Balljoints and hubs 1.5 inches is about max you should go. The higher the stiffer the ride also

I've been so busy with work and a sick kid that I haven't had time to do much to the blazer except take it in for a state safety inspection (it passed!) and ordered some beefy weld in clevis mounts last night.

After ignoring it for over a year, I got my engine light off! It was throwing up a evap pressure sensor code, and I knew it wasn't the sensor since I replaced my fuel pump a year ago and it came with a new sensor. So i knew it was a wiring issue.. well I was feeling the wire harness basically tracing from the pump to the front end and felt a break in the plastic cover right where the harness meets the frame beside the gas tank. So I dropped the tank a couple inches, just enough to unplug the the connectors, then I loosened up the harness. I took the driver rear tire off and was able to work with the wire from the wheel well (thank god). found 3 broken wires, so I soldered them up and taped it all together nicely and plugged it all in. I have a code reader so I cleared the code then started her up... no engine light!! I also had my abs and parking brake light on which I fixed by replacing the passenger front wheel speed sensor (actually replaced the whole bearing since it came with the sensor but was cheaper to buy as a whole)

I've forgotten how dark it is inside my truck at night when the dashboards isn't lit up.. haha
