I have a 1998 blazer 4x4 and i have been off roading a few times. I was wondering what i should do to make it able to do more off-roading. I new and just want to make nothing will go wrong if i keep going off roading.

Disconnect swaybars, beefier tires, lock the rear, skid plates, depends on how extreme you want to go. If you really want to get into it, you can do a solid front axle swap like i plan on doing after all my other projects are done[sm=badbadbad.gif]

Say bars stop the truck from swaying in turns. They also limit the amount of suspension flex, and on an IFS truck you need every inch of flex. The sway bar is a bar that runs from one front tire to the other front tire. It is shaped like a big u, or horseshoe.
