Default Need some help with a custom lift

I wanted to get a three inch body lift without knowing everything that would be involved, because I'm smart like that. I ordered 3 inch block kit off www.4crawler.com and thought it would be an entire kit instead of just blocks. Low and behold because of my weapons grade retardation, they didn't include bolts or any other hardware because I didn't mention that I needed it. They said at 4crawler all their Blazer customers have supplied their own bolts for their lift blocks from there, so they don't have the information needed to fabricate me any if I wanted them. These blocks are 3 inch blocks with 12mm holes. What other hardware do I need to make this body lift happen? This is the link they gave me to get them bolt specs : https://www.4crawler.com/4x4/ForSale...Kit.shtml#FAQ5 but I physically can't get under my truck to do this because I have a wrecked back. If someone can help me with the information so I can pass it on, it will enable 4 Crawler to offer more complete second gen S10 Blazer three inch lift kits, and it'll be on my dime too.

Over 40 views on the thread, no ones done a body lift and knows what size/dimensions are needed? I tried searching for it myself and could not find any hard numbers.

Look at the parts list for a Performance Accessories kit. You can download it from their site. They may only have a 2-inch kit, but you can add 25mm to the bolt lengths.

I have a bolt from my 2" body lift in my truck. I'll measure it when I go to lunch.

Not a problem, glad I could help. I'm building a 3" body lift to replace my 2". I need to check but I think I can reuse the bolts from the 2" kit.
