the 2" suspension lift is a huge waste of money IMO. it just allows you to crank your tbars even farther putting unwanted stress on your front end parts(mainly cv's) just save your money and crank your stock tbars 1.5" it is free afterall. if you do have your heart set on the 2" susp. lift i would suggestion you read through this thread first >> https://blazerforum.com/forum/lifting-tech-44/2%22-suspension-lift-gremlins-26616/

oh then why would a suspention lift of 2in be bad and a 5in lift not be worse? or cranking up the tbars? and what wear will it give the truck?

ok i take it you havent read the thread i linked earlier, so here it is again>> https://blazerforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=26616. the 5" and 6" kits include items that drop your front diff which helps to maintain your factory cv angle.

unless you buy a 5 or 6" lift kit you cannot lower your front diff.
