hi, i own '91 chevy s10 blazer 4.3L v6 and i've been having front suspension problems for sometime now...

it all started with suspension squeaking upfront, then sometimes id get a clicking sound when turning (so i assumed that would be axles or balljoints ? )

yesterday driving back from work started having problems when turning right, seems like theres not enough room for the wheel to turn... truck has a 3inch body lift by the way and slightly bigger tires.

i apologize if i didn't explain my situation in an easy way to read, i'm not that good with cars but willing to learn... so could someone help me out because i'm about to have no way to get to work...

-thank you

Z trim or more commonly referred to as front ride height is only adjustable on 4WD by adjusting the torsion bars. 2WD uses coil springs in front and are not adjustable. Ride height is the difference between the center of lower control arm pivot bolt, and the lowest inboard point of the steering knuckle, near the lower ball joint. The measurements must be taken when the vehicle is perfectly level, front to rear and side to side. The spec is 4.6 to 5.1 inches. If ride height is too high it causes all 4 ball joints, all 4 CV joints, and both of the outer tie rod ends to wear out prematurely. It can also cause all of the universal joints to wear rapidly.
