This is probably a stupid question but is it possible to swap the suspension from a zr2 straight to a 4door Lt?

 

no. no. no.

It wouldn't let me reply with just one "no".

 

You could swap some components though....

 

the only things you can really swap are the leafs, torsion bars, and torsion keys... everything else is different

 

I asked the same question a while back, here's the link
https://blazerforum.com/forum/lifting-tech-44/zr-2-suspension-43339/

 

Ok that's kinda what I thought. I want to make the back end stiffer so if the zr2 leafs fit I was thinking about doing that or just adding a leaf. Thanks for the help

 

I had the same plans, but ended up going with what is commonly called a "bastard pack" where you essentially mix-and-match pieces of multiple spring packs to achieve what you want. i teamed it up with new shocks and a lift shackle, and now my blazer rides more truck-like in the back. worth looking into i guess.

 

oh that sounds like a good idea. i dont really want to lift it a whole lot because i just bought standard 235 tires and a lift would make it look bad with the smaller tires i think. buying the tires is a interesting story too. the geniuses at discount tire sold me 31's and said they would fit with no rubbing at all. they put them on and i backed out of the garage and turned slightly and the tires started grinding so i pulled it right back in and had them put the 235's on. whats interesting is one of the guys there has a 00' Lt blazer with 31 M/T's with no lift or adjustment (so he claims) and they dont rub at all. i dont know how that can possibly work unless he only drives in a straight line..

 

dont open THAT can of worms man...

 

they told me i could probably use a grinder and carve away at my body panels to get it to fit but i said no thanks.
