Default Help With Lowering 95 4WD S-10 Blazer

I want to lower my blazer. It's stock right now suspension wise. It's a 1995 4WD. I was wondering the best way to do this would be? I want 4 inches of drop. How much would this be and what is the best route in doing so? Thanks.

Belltech sells lowering keys for your torsion bars, they claim on the web site that you can only get a 1-3" drop. I would search this forum though and see whats the max people have done without damaging the boots on their front axles.

Would this be a suitable drop kit? It doesn't say how much it would drop it, as long as it is ~3 inches I'm happy.

No that kit is wrong for your truck. Your truck doesnt have springs. Here is a list of part numbers you need from Belltech to drop your truck to a max of 3".
Belltech:
Torsion Bar Kit #3922
Drop 2 Shocks (front and rear) #QR6034
3" Drop Blocks #6200

Check summitracing.com for all these items.

Approximately, how much is it going to run for a 3 inch drop front and back?

did you really search here is the kit has everything u need except drop shocks
3 front 3 rear KIT $173.98
3 front 3 rear KIT (with shocks) $361.94

but really only need drop shocks in the front not the rear so go with the top one and buy shocks by themselves
