Spring Over Axle
 
I have an 02 Blazer S10 and want to do a Spring over axle conversion. Has anyone had experience with doing one thereselves and how difficult it was. Also what kind of parts are needed to do this. Also what would be the best way to level out the front. Im on about a 1k budget so it is a little tight. I'm fairly new to the world of lifting trucks so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Basically need longer brake lines. You have to cut off the old spring perches and weld new ones on top unless you did a awesome job saving the other ones. Pretty sure you can use the same shocks.

yup you will need a longer rubber brake line going down to the axle. new spring perches I would recommend some from superlift. You will also need new shock brackets from superlift and you will need longer shocks. There really isnt a way to raise the front enough to level it out without getting a kit for 2k. This will raise the back end roughly 5in. You can only raise the front 1.5in with the tbars.
