Only looking for a more aggressive look without breaking the bank or wearing out any parts because I can't afford to fix them at the moment. I have a 99 4 door blazer. Its my daily driver. Looking to put 30's or 31's on it. Would the 2" body lift be the best bet? Would the lift clear 31's with no trimming? If anyone has any pics could you post it please. Thanks

 

i had a 91 s1o blazer with a 2" suspension lift which it rubbed at hard turns, a co-worker added a 2" body lift to stock suspension and 31's didnt rub unless you flexed

 

My first lift was a 2 inch body lift....i never had issues with 31 's when i had them.
I have pics in the first portion of my build thread before i did the suspension lift

 

My body lift is only a few months old now. Got a pa 2 inch body lift and went from 235/75/15's to 31-10.50-15's. I also put 15x7 'Maro wheels that widened the stance of the blaze a bit. This is because of the 4.5" backspacing. You will have to trim a bit so you don't rub at full lock, but trimming isn't too bad.

Here are some pics:

Right after I got 31s put on. I had trimmed just a tad but it was still rubbing.



Close up of it at full lock STANDING STILL. It WILL rub when you actually get going because of the road surface and weight in motion.



A more recent picture of clearance. As you can see, I also trimmed the front just a tad as well. This isn't necessary, but I just felt like it lol. Excuse the mud

 

tibby, did you put the lift on yourself?

 

I would go with the Rough country 2.5" lift, and 31s
the lift is more expensive then the body lift, but you know the 31s will clear then

 

i myself am wanting to lift my daily driver i am going with a add a leaf set up and i also am ordering 2wd rims bc the offset will make them stick out a tad bit more than 4wd rims would

 

Help from a friend.

 

To add to his question, would it be possible to do a 2" body lift and T-bar crank? Then put the 31s on? To get a more beastly look without breaking the bank? Or would it be better off just doing a 2.5" suspension from rough country or something similar?

 

Any time you crank the T bars, you increase wear. The best/cheapest way to get 2" is to do a body lift. Only then, if you need a little more clearance, would I suggest cranking the T bars. Don't go too high though.
