And what do you mean expensive lift kits? The kits for these trucks are some of the cheapest I have ever seen. $420 from Rough Country, 2.5" w/ torsion bar keys, rear lift shackles, front diff drop brackets, upper control arms w/ rebuildable ball joints, and 4 nitro shocks. FOR $420!! And for $500, I can get a Superlift or Rough Country 5-6" lift kit with new upper control arms, diff drop brackets, shocks, high-strength IFS housing, rear axle flip kit. I worked as a tech for Jeep and know you are gona have a hard time finding that cheap of kit for a Jeep (mainly cause its a jeep)
the rough country 6" isnt up on the site yet. Here is the superlift, although it is all very confusing, not a well-done site or page. 6" F.I.T. Performance Series Lift System · 1995 - 1997 Chevy/GMC Blazer / Jimmy (Mid Size) 4WD · Superlift · www.superlift.com
rex/diatiata... mine is an01 2 door 3.73 gears and thier is a locker up front, i bought it like that and i seriously doubt someone took the time to put an aftermarket locking diff up front but, who knows i know its up front and it makes me happy. As per the lift the torsion bar crossmember has 2 circlur holes cut so the keys sit past the crossmember and got almost 3 inches out of it doing it the unsafe way

I bought the housings at princess auto, drilled holes in the back of them and put hid bulbs in them. Then I put silcone around it to seal out moisture and just mounted them to the bottom of the rear bumper, I originaly had them mounted under the hitch but I was afriad I would end up breaking them off. I had extra room between the bumper and hitch from the bodylift so it worked out pretty good. I wired them up to a switch so I could turn them on or off as I wanted too.
i own a 02 4dr 4x4 with an open diff, and an 01 2dr 4x4 with the gm G80 locker....so what are all of us blazer owners been able to do with our blazers. as far as towing, mudding, offroad, NO RACING THESE ARE SUV'S!!!! pulling people out ect.... let us know
