Default Newbie looking for advice.

Hey, I'm Jacob. New to Blazer Forum, but forum's seem to be the best way to research stuff these days, that's why I'm here.

Looking at getting a Chevrolet Blazer near the end of this Spring, sooner if possible. 4x4, four doors, better in the Winter than my car, one of the first things that I'd need to do, to be satisfied is jack it up a few inches, and put some big tires on it.

I'm on here trying to figure out what all I need, and where to go to get the item/s. I'm trying to do a bit of research now, ahead of time, just to get prices in my head.

Any input/ advice would be great. Thank you.

fab up 2" shackles for the back, search t-bar crank for the front (1.5" lift) and your fav place for tires. might want to consider 2" body lift while ur at it.... search feature is in the top menu bar of the page above ur post and u can find everything for lifting your rig that u need to know.

welcome to the show.

sounds like you have some ideas rolling around, but remember, this is the area for introductions only.

look through the various sections-and in the correct gen of truck-to find the info you're looking for. it's all here, and it's usually been hashed quite a few times.



a little FYI, a first gen will fit 31's stock. but a 2nd gen will need a TB crank/shackles (possibly a little front fender trimming too) to get 31's under it.
