blazerlt,
Have you left your 4x4 lowered? Did you lower it just to see what it would look like?

Cubanlorenzo, I've heard you can crank the tbars enought to fit zr2 wheel in there if you want. This isn't too good for your balljoints, but you can get the moog ones -they last a lot longer. Remember you also have to shackle or block the rear too.

i just had all 4 of my ball joints replaced. they were the stock balljoints with 185000 miles on them. just had them replaced 2500 miles ago. not looking to buy new ones. id rather leave my blazer at stock height then shorten the life of them by lowering my blazer. thanks anyway

You can remove the bolts totally for a maximum drop.

The more you turn the bolts out, the more the front end will drop.

if i were to buy the blocks for the rear and turn down the torsion bars, would i get any worse/better or a ride? i like the look of it lowered a bit

The ride with soften up a bit. Nothing big though.

cubanlorenzo · #21 01-16-2005, 12:59 PM

think it is worth doing?

BlazerLT · #22 01-16-2005, 02:32 PM

Sure, if you want a drop for cheap.

I'm going to be redoing mine soon.

Just be mindful that you will have to go in for an alignment soon afterwards.

i need an alignment anyways, little off. i think i might go with the drop then. you said 3" total dropped? should i go the full 3" or maybe 2"?

That depends on how much you rear end is sagging.

cubanlorenzo · #25 01-16-2005, 07:50 PM

i dont think it is sagging at all. thinking more about it. i dont think that i will do it. i have a hitch under my bumber and with lowering it 3 inches will make it even lower to the floor. that, and not too sure i want a lowered truck. i live in northern jersey and the damn mountains and snow around here suck. thanks though

Sure, it is your decision.
