Need to stop body roll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I need some guidance on the mods needed to drastically reduce this body roll in my 1997 LT 4 X 4 Blazer? I plan to change the stock shocks (190k) out to stiffer but I am sure I need to something with the stabilizer bars right? I see that the front bar is very thick but the endlinks look like doo doo. Thanks in advance for the help.

Get Energy Suspension Polyurethane sway bar bushings. They'll make a huge difference, even over brand new stock bushings.

Here is a link to Jigg's website, which has all kinds of suspension components and other cool stuff for blazers, s-10's, and colorado's.
Also if you get some larger diameter shocks like 46mm shock pistons (found in Edlebrock IAS, KYB MonoMax, maybe some others too) they will help a lot. My guess is that you would need to replace the sway bar bushings and maybe some other bushings. But the shocks will definately help a lot. |

Is this the kit for both sway bars or only the front? http://www.shop.synergyoffroad.com/p...p;productId=68 Does my 97 LT have a the 33mm front sway bar? Thanks |
RE: Need to stop body roll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am not sure. Another route to go is to get the same brand name on Ebay. It might go into better depth there. I would think that we all have the same size sway bars and I think they are 33mm sway bars.

What's the total cost look like to do all bushings and shocks? On avg?

RE: Need to stop body roll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
not sure about total cost depends on what shocks you get. but another option to stiffen the rear end is an add a leaf. which are great if you do a lot of towing like i do in the summer time ( i pull my 2100 lbs motocross trailer). you could also do a tbar crank which will stiffen the front end but cause more wear on front end components

RE: Need to stop body roll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
most 4x4 blazers have the 33mm sway bars mine dose ( 97 gmc jimmy 4x4 )
i would try the bushings first |
RE: Need to stop body roll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have a 2001 lt 4 door 4x4 uk spec so
I went with add a leaf, new shocks & spacers it made one hell of a difference |
