So with the Moogs and 2" shackles in the rear i'm going to have a pretty decent rake? I'm not a big fan of doing spindles but i'll have to see what i think after getting all the parts together

Yeah, 2" shackles will probably be to much.

Ony old 2wd i di moogs spindles and 3 inch shackles and it was level. And that was a rcsb truck so i dont think you will need shackles at all. Maybe with dick cepeck lift springs. And there is nothing wrong with spindles they are better than using springs imo

Wow...it looks great. I would live to lift my stock 2001 blazer to look like that.
Can you tell me how much you ended up spending on the material, minus the rims and tires?
That way I have a good idea on what I will need. And since I am new to this...I will probably have someone do the work to make sure it's done right.

Thanks..

Sorry for the late reply guys. Thanks for the comps. I have a list written on the s10forum. Hope it's alright if I link it here.

sorry, i read it wrong. i was trying to find spindles for my blazer but they only make them for 2000 and later. so would you suggest getting taller coil springs?

Or convert your brakes to s10 brakes like I did and use s10 spindles.
