Blazer is lifted...

Well, i finally got around to putting the rest of my "lift" on the blazer. it now has 1.5" daystar shackes and pro comp AALs in the rear and a tbar crank in the front. the truck rides real nice. i will get some pics up whenever i steal my friends camera.

im still running the stock size, 31" BFG ATs. my truck is a ZR2 blazer, so it came from the factory with a 3" lift over a stock blazer/s10. its up about another 2" now.

im contemplating a body lift next to sqeeze some 32s under the fenders.

I thought all you needed was 1.5-2" lift to fit the 32's on the ZR2 trucks. I'm running the 32's on my 88 4Runner with the stock 15x7 wheels and they work fine.

32s wont fit on a stock zr2. you need at least a 2" body lift and a tbar crank. trust me.

the rear of my truck has plenty of room to run 32s now, its the front thats the problem. i would have to do extreme trimming to get them now. plus, they would rub going over any sort of bump, not to mention rub horribly off road.

32's on a stock ZR2 will rub very badly with no lift at all. i had 2 ZR2's before my silverado. both had 5" BDS lifts and and rubbed with the 33's. My friend has a 2" body lift on his blazer2 and still rubs his 32's.
