Cool Iowa New To The Forums

Hello, I actually do not have a blazer.. I have a 2000 GMC Jimmy SLT.. I just sold my Mercedes and am looking for a Blazer now.I really like the 95-05 body style. Any advice on specific models or engines to avoid? My plan is: Foot of lift, Big Meaty Wheels, Cold Air Intake, Tune and a push bar nothing fancy. Thanks for having me here.

Greetings from below zero!
I would say look for a 2003-2004 Blazer LT or ZR2... Depending on if you want a 2 or 4 door.
​​​​​​Some desirable RPO codes; G80, NP8, ZQ8.
That's all that I can think of currently .. Someone else will chime in any second with more info.

Awesome, very helpful information. I like the 2 doors! Really want it to be a baha style look and i think that accomplishes it!

2.5” would look swell I bet. I was gonna do Cold air intake but not sure due to off-roading . I may just keep it stock.
