Default Wanting To Lift

Can anybody tell me if this set up would be a good way of going to lift my Blazer.
Thanks

Well from what I read the 2" lifts are junk. They are basically glorified t-bar cranks. 2" Bl are nice if your just wanting to fit bigger tires, but a lot of people don't like the way the frame shows. As far as the 5"-6" lifts I heard the BDS is the nicest. It seems to be the easiest and theres no welding required. But I think its the most expensive. If you are wanting to go bigger than 6" you will have to look into a solid front axle. But there are no kits yet( www.3leaffab.com is in the process of making a bolt in kit) and they require a lot of fab work. So its just depends on what you want out of your truck.

Well I already have 31's on it right now and I just want a little something more just to raise and make it look better in my opinion. I've read that the rough country lift is really worth money because all your doing in crank the tbars and replacing parts with new ones. I don't really want to spend 2 grand on theBDS or any liftfor that matter really, just something settle and nice.I don't mind the way it looks after abody lift. All in all I just want to do something with it to raise it up without having the doubt that my bj's will go bad within a few thousand miles (meaning just cranking the tbars). I've already done that but I want something more.
