Default Need advice

i got a 2000 s-10 4 door, automatic or manul 4wd, i want to put a 4 inch lift kit and i think 36 inch tires on it, how hard is it to install the lift kits, and i going down the right path, i want to go in the mud, couple of my friends have jeeps and dodges and they have large lift kits and tires, i want to be able to go on the trails they do, and not the "baby car" trails

thanks for anyhelp

there arent 4" lift kits. us blazer owners are unlucky enough to only have 2" or 6" susp lift and 2" or 3" body lift. i dont think you could fit 36's very easily even with 6" and a body lift

im sure theres a way. rcars2 was able to squeeze 33's on his 4dr with a 2" body lift and 2" susp lift and lotsa trimming. imagine what could be done with a 3"body lift and 6" susp lift.

only problem is, 6" superlift is close to 2 grand and the "recommended" tire size is 32" IIRC
