Default 2-3 In. suspension lifts that don't require a t-bar crank

The title pretty much says it all does anybody know of a 2-3in suspension lift kit that does not require the t-bar to be cranked up?

you left part of the title off.... the sentence should say; "Two to three inch suspension lifts that don't require a torsion bar crank do not exist." I believe what you have there is called a sentence fragment..lol

Yeah there is nothing that height other than a body lift, which does not do anything to the suspension. You could do a 2" body lift, and 1.5-2" shackles in the rear and a 1-1.5" t-bar crank, shouldnt put too much extra stress on the cv shafts and ball joints, but you would definately need check them often, at least at every oil change and make sure they are lubed up real good. This would allow you to run 31" tires which will give you about an extra inch of frame-ground clearance.

ok so let me ask a new question how high of a suspension lift do I need to get before I don't have to worry about a t-bar crank.........I know sometimes with the higher up ones they just replace a bunch of stock parts to make their lifts work

Yeah you would need either the Trailmaster 5" or 6" or the Superlift 6" kit. These run between 1400 and 2000 dollars plus shipping. I can't recall if Rough Country makes a lift kit for the blazer other than the 2" new a-arms and tbar crank one. Just do some searching on the web, 4wheelparts.com is a good site to check out, otherwise google s-10 blazer suspension lift.
