Default 4x4 lowering kit found

We just lowered my wifes TBSS using the McGaughy front springs and adjusting the rear suspension. It came down about an inch all around. It looks nice, but may not be enough for some here. It also firmed up the ride, but not uncomfortable, or harsh. Between the CAI, tune, and lowering it is just about the way the GM design engineers meant for it to beBruce

Thumbs up 4x4 lowering

i lowered my 4x4 blazer 3" in the front and 4" in the rear to make it sit level i did this for around 50 bucks i got 3" lowering keys for the front that looked just like the stock keys when i put them side by side it was about half a inch different i got 4" lowering blocks for the rear i did all this in my drive way with some jack stands and some Musial the rear was hitting the bump stops so i cute about a inch out of them so they wouldn't hit i didn't have to do shocks because with the blocks it does not move the shock Mont at all its like it is stock and i have stock shocks in the front i checked everything over and the shocks don't bottom out i want to go lower i'm not sure if i can do it tho because of the 4weel drive i think if i go lower in the front i will have the front drive Axel binding so i need to know if someone makes a drop spindle for 4x4 blazers if so please let me know so i can take out the front drive Axel and go lower

agent 305 your blazer is 4wd and u lowered it with the torsion keys and it was rubbing fenders? i now own my second 4wd blazer and i lowered both of them and never came close to rubbing fender...

also did u use any drop shocks front or rear? i found sum online at one point but didnt have the money and now that i have the money i cant find any..they were nitro drop shocks from belltech...

thanks for any help,feedback

has anyone used superlift 2" liftkit upper control arms to do a lowering kit. it looks fairly simple. just flip upside down, switch sides. it might also hellp with alignment issues and suspension wear.
