RE: liftin my 2000 blazer
well the problem with the RC lift is that all your doing is cranking the tbars. You dont want to go past 1.5" or your angles are too extreme and you will go through of balljoints a lot faster. So therefore your not getting a full 2". It also depends if you are going to be doing any trail riding or is it just for looks. My 31's have hardly any tread left (4/32) and i still caught the top of the fenders a few times while on the trails. I have a 1" tbar crank.

I am workin on gettin my digital camera fixed so no I dont right now. This forum is full of blazer owners that have 2" lifts and 31s. If you search around I am sure you can find some pics to see what it looks like. I drove around for a year on BFG ATs on stock wheels with a 2" lift and never had a problem. I only recently added a body lift because I want to go to 33s.
Yes, if you plan on doing some serious off roading then you will rub the tires. If so then go with the 5" suspension kit. I amconsidering that myself.

Look in my gallery for pics. i have a 1" tbar crank and 2" add a leafs. Your front end will sit 1/2" higher.
That is possible if you stay on the roads. if you go on the trails you will rub guaranteed. I have hit the top of my fenders twice witch makes a nice cut in my treads and bends the fender up a little. I have pics to prove it. Also with out a LOT of trimming you wont be able to fit 33's.

I have also have a 2"body lift along with the 1.5" tbar crank with 31s and if you want a pic i will show you how close i am to the fender along with the damage to the fender.
Just because you added a 2" body lift doesnt mean you can add 2" bigger tires.
