Trailblazer Lift

I do a little off-roading and wanted to put a lift on my TB. I don't want to jack it 10' in the air, i just need at least four more inches of clearance so i don't bottom out on a rock again. I've seen some people selling coil spacers but i dont know if they are worth it. If not, does anyone know the best way to give the TB a lift.

Re: Trailblazer Lift

BDS makes nice workable kits for trailblazers. http://www.bds-suspension.com/products/ They have a 2" suspension lift kit and a 2" body lift avail. IMO, 4" would put the half shafts at too radical an angle. You'd be shredding boots and blowing out CV joints constantly. I personally wouldn't go more than 2" on a TB.

Re: Trailblazer Lift

Confirming what Joel said, unless you want to be replacing halfshafts up front all the time, 3" is the absolute MAX you can go, so BDS went 2" to be safer. They are the only ones with a viable life here in the states (Japanese coils, dont go there).

If you want more than 2", get some bigger tires. Thats the only other way to get it.
