Hey everyone. I am planning on putting a 2.5" lift kit on my 2001 ZR2 Blazer, the Rough Country lift kitS10 S15 Blazer Jimmy ZR2 Highrider suspension lift kits (seen at top of list) and I am not sure like exactly, what all i need to check for in a lift kit. I don't know if this kit has everything I need and I just buy that and install it, or what I'll need to do. Was there any modifications I'll need to do on my blazer for things to fit right?

 

Actually, scratch this. I need to figure out what to do.

 

Well it depends on how much money you are willing to spend. 2.5" rough country suspension lift would be great but expensive, but, comes with everything you need to install it. You could also do a torsion bar crank on the front and 2" shackles on the back. That would be a lot cheaper to do. You could also resort to body lifts also but personally I like to balance it out. I'm wanting to do a 2" body lift with a 2.5" rough country suspension lift. It just depends on what you want done and how you want it done and how much you want to spend. I wish the best of luck to you though and I'd like to see some pics on here of your finished blazer!!

 

The only problem with the torsion bar crank is that it is hard on the vehicle and will cause wear and tear faster

 

ok, thanks. Yeah I know it isn't really good to crank it up like as much as it'll go. And I was just not sure if I can simply buy this kit, and it goes on, or if there's anything i need to work on my blazer before it can go on, like maybe readjusting exhaust or whatever ya know. But I'm glad to know it would have everything I need.

 

A member made this video. This should show you the whole process

 

I also did a write up

I never knew you made a write up Jared. I just bookmarked it. =)

 

Alright. Thanks everyone.

 

Its a pretty straight forward install it just takes some time to complete everything so make sure you don't need to be anywhere for a day or two! Also once you place the order go outside and spray every nut and bolt with PB Blaster or whatever you prefer and then reapply it everyday or at least every other day until you start the install. Some may say thats overkill but I say why spend hours fighting rusted bolts when you don't have to
