Default suspension lift and add a leaf

ok so i've been looking into getting a 2" suspension lift for my blazer but i'm not real sure what sites to look at to find a good deal on one or anything. in the little bit of searching that i've done so far this is the cheapest one i've come across so far. is there anything cheaper out there or is this as cheap as it gets?

also i am looking at getting an add-a-leaf set. any ideas as to what brand to go w/ and whats the cheapest out there that does the best?

Not bad for a rough country kit. Try sites like www.stylintrucks.com, www.summitracing.com, www.ok4wd.com, www.4wheelparts.com, www.synergyoffroad.com, Buta really cheap lift would be a body lift..

ok i'll check those sites out thanks! and ik body lifts r cheap but i want the ground clearance more (ik 2" isnt all that big) cuz we have hunting land up north and those roads if u even wanna call em roads lol get pretty rough my dads suburban gets thru em no problem and i want to do the same. and cranking the t-bars increases wear so i dont really wanna do that. ik the suspension lift kit i have posted gives new control arms which help complement the new increased angle to help reduce wear

I've got the 2" rough country suspension lift kit in my blazer. I've got pics in my photo gallery, but mine is a 2nd gen though. I also did a 2" add a leaf. I got a tuff country add a leaf from suspensionconnection.com for like $45.
