there isnt much you can do after cranking the tbars 1.5. I think the only other way to lift the fron would be to go out and but a 6" kit. Also you could always do a body lift.They are cheap and easy to do.

Exactly. Your only other options would be either a 5" or 6" suspension lift or 2" body lift. Or a SAS (Solid Axle Swap), but that wont be cheap like a body lift. I read on anothe thread you plan on running 35's, well you are def going to need to do a suspension lift. My boy has 34's on his blazer with a 6" lift and 2" body lift and still had to trim is fenders.

from what i understand, thats the only thing wrong with chevy. the IFS kinda screws you on your lifting options. for my vehicle, by the time i spend the money on either a SAS or the 6" lift and install, its almost as much as i paid for the vehicle, so it seems non thrifty to do that for me. Im just going to do what wolfpack did. seems most people on here love his chevy anyway.
