Default 5 or 6 inch lift

Why does Rough Country say their 6 inch lift will not work on a 2dr 2001 LS Blazer?

Also, I see that people have the 5 inch Trailmaster lift kit, but I can't find it anywhere. Help a brother out?

There is probably one or two pieces in the RC kit that are different, but the kit should still install. Is it a ZR2 kit?

The Trailmaster 5" kit isn't/wasn't that good anyway, the steering geometry was wrong, and it made for weird handling characteristics. $.02

I re-called RC today and a new guy said that the crossmember does not match up on a 2dr and that people must be modifying their kits in some way. Does anyone have experience/ know what mods are necessary to make 6inch GM lift kit fit a 2dr 2001 Blazer LS?

I'm not sure about the RC kit, but when I pulled the Trailmaster kit out of my 4 door, I sold it to a guy with a 2 door and he said it installed without issue.

i got it for $300 as the previous owner stripped it off the axles and was going to scrap it. body was perfect when i got it, but 5 chicago winters claimed my cab corners. luckily winter hasnt been that bad up here and havent had to drive it the last two.

when i got it home from mississippi
