Another option for rear lift on 4-doors.

I did a 1.5" t-bar crank and put 31x10.50 tires on the stock rims. My truck is an LT trim. I first thought about getting shackles for the rear. But occasionally I have to pull a trailer and thought my rear springs were to soft anyways (It's not a car after all :icon_wink:). My brother in-law got "Monroe sensa-trac extra load carrying shocks" for his old f-150. He told me it lifted it almost 2". I didn't believe him until I seen it for myself. So I looked to see if I could get them for my blazer (but cannot get for the ZR2). Sure enough... I found them at advanceauto parts for $114/pair. They allow 1200lbs more weight. They have a non-adjustable coil spring on the shock itself. All you have to do is bolt them on like a normal shock. They worked perfect for what my use for them were. They leveled out my truck and My truck doesn't bounce around anymore with a loaded trailer behind it.
The first two pics are of the t-bar crank and no lift in back w/31" tires. The last two are with the new overload shocks that's all. And they've been on there for two weeks now. So they're settled in and everything.
