Hey everyone,my name is Corey and I purchased a 1993 full size blazer about a month ago. This is my first 4 wheel drive and I am trying to learn everything I can about it.The blazer has a 6.5" Rancho suspension lift with a 3" body lift. I am running 37x14.50 Toyo MT tires on it. My main questions are about the front suspension.What can I do to beef it up or tell if it is already beefed up. I have been reading that the front diffs in half ton GM are known for being kind of weak. Any info you guys can give me to get me more familiar with my new blazer would be much appreciated.

Welcome from Alberta!

Is there a specific reason you're worried about your front suspension and diff? Is it doing something weird? Do you do a lot of hard core wheeling? I know very little about the full-size Blazers, but there's a few other members on here that know a ton. Try posting up in the Full-Size suspension section of the forum and hopefully you'll get some help.

I've just been reading that the stock diffs and CV shafts are not that strong when it comes to lift kits and big tires.I dont do any hard core wheeling. I've mainly just been playing in the mud.Just trying to get a better understanding of the truck and maybe anything I should look out for.
