First off...please read all board descriptions. This particular post belongs in the board dedicated to lifting called "Lift Tech".

And you obviously haven't looked AT ALL....because there are sooo many lift kits out there lol.

What are you looking for? Body lift? suspension lift? shackles?....you need to specify more what you're looking for. How much lift? price range?

www.ebay.com that will have your body lift , just search 2" body lift blazer

thats gonna run you right around 200 bucks

want to go cheaper?

a 2" shackle in the rear and a torsion bar crank will run you 45 bucks

That should have been a new thread but same goes for you. What size and lift and who is it made buy. Most sites will tell you what you need.

Meh I wouldn't do ebay for a body lift got my 3" BL from summit racing for $61 only thing missing was bumper brackets but I had other plans for that anyways so no loss to me but important info for someone wanting to retain stock bumpers.

Edit: I really need a new sig so ya'll can see what it looks like now lol

People who are posting about lift kits - you really NEED to specify what you are looking for. We can't help you if you just say you want a lift kit...there are many different types and sizes. 3 main types are body lift, suspension lift and tbar/shackle lift. They range anywhere from 2"-6" in lift. The price goes anywhere from $60-$2500, so you can see the massive range you have to choose from.

Now...to the OP - As Spectre said ebay is your best bet for a body lift. I know lots of people who have used the ebay lifts without issue. You should be able to find a 4dr one easily since there are LOTS of 4drs with body lifts on the forum. They obviously got them somewhere. A good body lift kit is anywhere from $150-$200 as he said also. If you don't have that kind of cash pick up a set of 2" shackles for $50. Then you can crank your tbars in the front for free and voila, you have 2" of lift. Not to mention it will look bettr then a body lift and you will actually gain ground clearance (unlike a body lift where you're only lifting the body).

And to jjsmith - Please refer to NVANZEE's reply. Do no hijack other peoples posts, it is rude and against the rules. If you have a question about lifting read around the forum first as there is plenty of documentation on different types of lift kits. If you still haven't found your answer please post it in YOUR own thread. Thanks.

The Performance Accessories 2" body lift is for both 2 and 4 door vehicles. If you have a 4 door use all the supplied blocks....have a 2 door? throw 2 blocks away. At least it was when I bought mine off ebay. Go to Ebay, or summit, or really any other auto parts site and serch for your vehicle year+ body lift.
