If you want to go that high, you have to spend money. It is as simple as that. There are lifts that cost a bunch and retain the factory (restrictive) IFS (independent front suspension) setup and then there are SFA (solid front axle) swaps.

 

35s = new axles.

 

Cheapest way to get the amount of lift you are looking for is to buy a truck that already has the lift, preferably SFA for reliability of your front end.

Otherwise, plan on spending big $$$. That is the best answer I can give you.

 

Agreed... You have to pay to play.

 

ty..
so how about a 3" body lift an some 31" tires?? would that work?

 

if you are wanting to run 31, it is as simple as either a 2" body lift or a 2" susp. lift. for me, i could clear 31 with no lift.

 

If you were to combine the 2" suspension with a 2" body lift, what size tires can u fit? I have 33s off my 1/2 ton that i wanted to throw on my blazer, but they're to big to fit a stock blazer, i was looking for a decent lift for a good price. unfortunately the money i had saved up for a lift had to go to repairing my differential...1700$. I know body lifts are pretty cheap, but where can i find a good suspension lift for a good price.

99 S10 Blazer, 4dr 6cyl 4.3L

 

32 with little triming(what i am hoping on running) and 33 with a good bit of triming. how wide are the 33 off the full size?
and you really want to regear for either tire size. your stock 3.42 will handle 31 but32 are going to be pushing it with out regearing.

 

^This is true.^ Also I hope you guys are planning on running a different set of wheels because you will rub on ur frame if you plan on putting 32" or 33" tires on your stock rims. I would suggest getting a rim with a 4.5" back space. Also check ebay for the body lifts. And as for the 2" suspension lift, u can save yourself money by just buying 2" shackles for the rear and just tweaking up the torsion bar to raise the front end up 1.5" max.
