Well... Depends on what you want. If you search this forum you will find EVERY thing you need to know about every lift for a blazer, or just everything you need to know about a blazer in general.

But to put it simply, if you want to do it right go with your second option. The cheap option wont be cheap in the long run, with a big T-bar crank (as in 2"+) you will go through front end parts like no tomorrow. up to 1.5" is alright but still not great. If you get the new rough country lift that includes the differential drop bracket you wont have that problem (2.5" lift) then you can do a body lift (2" max) which would give you 4.5" of lift.

your only other options after that are a 5" or 6" lift if you want to keep the IFS, If you want to go any higher then you need to SAS it. for any more info on either of the lifts i talked about just search on here, there is lots of information.

Hope this helps
