Default Anybody install lifts from Nashville

I have a 99 chevy blazer 4x4 and I would like to get a suspension lift, but I want to get it installed for a good deal. Like around $1350 total for a 5-6" lift. I would also like to get a 2" bodylift for around $400 installed. Thanks

Not gonna happen for that price. A 5-6in suspension lift cost 1600-2k. I would guess it will be at least another 500 to install it. The body lift is a reasonable price installed since they are easy to do.

I went to 4Wheel Parts in Nashville and was quoted around 2500 about a year ago for a 6in superlift installed. Don't know about the body lift, they couldn't quote me price because they said the BL is only up to an 03 model

Yea I know about the $2500 quote, businesses around here charge a lot for the work they do. I'm wondering if anyone has a hookup through their work and could possibly do the job and/or get the parts for a lot less. I was quoted about $700 for a 2in. BL by Chuck's Truck Accessories, but had to turn them down. Thanks for the posts

I dont think they make a 3in BL for 4dr blazers? But I could buy a 2in BL for around $250, and if you can install it I might have to take you up on the offer. lol

i belive the rear is good up to 7 or 8in or a 4door 6 or 7in on a 2door, the front will be okay but you need to modify the exhaust y-pipe to make room for the lowered front driveshaft

Very correct, if anything you can force it in there, and hammer down the exhaust pipe with a hammer.
