I have a 1996 Chevy Blazer LS and I am looking to get it lifted.

I have no experience with lifting cars and I will most likely have some one do it for me. However I have a few questions:

What type of shop would do a lift for me?

Body or Suspension lift?

Approx. cost?

Thanks.

 

All depends on what you want to do with your ride.
Torsion bar crank will get you 1.5 inches up front...free
Rear lift shackles will get you 2 inches...100.00 or so
body lift 2 - 3 inches 200-300
suspension lifts will get you 5 - 6 inches for 1600 - 2000

Those prices are my best guess and materials only.

Do a search...there are alot of options and combinations you can do.

 

Can't forget the RC 2.5" suspension lift for 420ish
If you upgrade to 31x10.5" tires you will gain a little bit of ground clearance aswell

Wow thanks guys. One of my main questions though would be

What kind of shop would do this for me? I would not be able to perform this myself, sadly.

 

you would have to search your local area.
around here in michigan we have "truck" shops that do upgrades.

a parts dealer like BDS should be able to tell you a local shop...as they would need to send the lift kit somewhere.

also, i have found it cheaper ,at least at the place i go to for things like this, to have the shop order it for you.
