Wish I knew this was only for the 4dr before I bought the 2dr now I'm having trouble getting the lift I need to go off roading 😞 2"body lift and 2" suspension lift (the 2 1/2" causing the ball joints to die quick) anyone have any ideas on the best straight axle and drive shaft (besides a cheerokee) for a 99 s10 2 dr 4x4 blazer?

That's what my issue has been... I was fooled into thinking the 6" would work... Now ppl tell me to swap the axles but I don't like the cherokee suspensions... Any other Chevy axles fit do ya know?

All the chevy axles I know of will be passenger side drop for the differential, our trucks need driver side drop. I'm not a fan or Cherokee alxes, either, if I'm doing all the work of a SAS, I want at least D44 level of strength.

80+ jeep wagoneers have front and rear D44s that are the right width. I'm planning on eventually finding a set of tons, and not caring how far the wheels stick out, Texas doesn't have any laws regarding fender coverage

Wow this thread is awesome. Just read through the whole thing. It's giving me the motivation to rebuild my 4.3 and order a 6" lift kit for my '01 Jimmy. May have to fight some electrical gremlins or do an EGR delete though. Thanks for your build threads, cleburne red and DonL.
