How to tell what suspension set up I have?
I just got my 99 Blazer 4x4 LS 4dr and I'm trying to figure out which set-up I have. Is there any way to tell? I've got about 116k miles on her and I'm sure she's about due for some suspension loving. Any help woulf be greatly appreciated!

RE: How to tell what suspension set up I have?
Well, by suspension setup, what do you mean?
With a 4x4 you have a torsion bar independent front suspension and a leaf spring rear live axle. Beyond that, what else would you like to know? |

Do you have Bilsteins? Or the deCarbon (ZQ8?)gas shocks.
I think he wants to know if he has the Z85 or ZQ8 suspension. |

I believe the ZQ8 is 4x2 only. "Sport" suspension with a slightly lower ride height.:D

At 116k assuming th previous owner has not done anything to the suspension, when should I expect to replace anything?

Got to summit racing.com and search your vehicle. They will lead you in the right direction. I would go with Bilstien lik 56 buck a shock. Also check out truckperformance.com do the same search with your vehicle type.

The front sway bar links/bushings were beat on mine at 73k miles. The usual, lower ball joints, idler arm, outer tie rods.
Depends on ones driving habits. |
