Default 4 door lift? I know nothing about lifting.

Well, I was getting my brand new wrangler AT's on yesterday at the shop, and I noticed they had a lifted wrangler sitting on the side. I asked him how much of a lift was on it which they said was 4''


Then the guy told me "Don't be expecting to lift that that high(pointing at my blazer), it can't get any higher or close to the wrangler"

Well I have seen blazers on 6'' lifts, or even lower lifts and still sit higher than the wrangler did. Does this guy know nothing too?


Also, about the lifts, if I want to fit 33's on the 4 door 1999 blazer, how much of a lift should I get, and how much will it run me? I have a buddy that will lift it for nearly free, so I am looking for a lift that is pretty cheap as I have no job at the moment.

Warthogdriver has a 4-door with a 6" lift and 33x12.5" tires. He also has a 2" body lift. Check out his build thread. 33's are possible on a Blazer, but it takes quite a bit of work.
