lifting my blazer
hey i have a 84 s-10 blazer 4x4 i was wondering the cheapest easyest way to lift it. i was thinking about a 3 inch body with spacers and a 2 inch suspension with shackles and a torsion bar adjuster. i was wondering about the torsion bar adjuster does any one have them on there s10 and do the work good and wut about every thing else i want. are they good ideas

What you mentioned is the easiest. Don't know about the torsion bar adjusters though. One thing I should mention is that the cheapest is not always the best way to go.

Adjusting the torsion bars will give the 2" your looking for but you will get mixed opinions. Some say bad idea but some say it works.
You will need an alignment afterwards. If you use shackles for the rear I would get the good beefy ones. But I think an add-a-leaf would be better. A 2" body lift will look better than a 3".

Re: lifting my blazer
You can add a leaf and get around 1.5-2 inches. Autozone has a helper kit you can put at the bottom of your springs and add a bit of height. Lifting with the torsions can cause a great deal of problems, but I have done it on a few blazers. Get ready to put in new axles if you do that. The "Best cheap way" I ever lifted was add a leaf, shackles, torsions (as little as possible) and a 2 inch body lift. I also relocated the bumpers so it didn't look like shit. Have fun
