96Blazer Posted October 17, 2010 Report Posted October 17, 2010 How can I lower my 1996 4WD chevy blazer without making my front end super soft and bouncy? 2001 GMC Jimmy SLE 4X4 Floor Shift AutoHeadunit - Alpine CDA-117Front Door Speakers - Alpine SPS-600C MidsRear Door Speakers - NoneDash Speakers - Alpine SPS-600C TweetersSub Amp - Rockford Fosgate T4002Mids+Highs Amp - Rockford Fosgate P4004Subwoofer - P3D215 Fosgate Punch 15Sub Box - Rockford Fosgate designed "powerful" ported box Built by myself i would rather run cheaper but sexier then expensive and fucking ugly.
YoungBuck Posted October 17, 2010 Report Posted October 17, 2010 First off I'm just gonna say lowering a 4x4 is pointless and a lot harder than a 2wd, but how much are you thinking of lowering it? PM me for free Photoshop stuff SAMSQUANCH!!!!
96Blazer Posted October 17, 2010 Author Report Posted October 17, 2010 Im not looking to slam the thing to the ground and lay frame or anything; But im thinking probably around a 3 inch drop or so. Id like to go more drop then that but I am not sure if that would be a ton more work. 2001 GMC Jimmy SLE 4X4 Floor Shift AutoHeadunit - Alpine CDA-117Front Door Speakers - Alpine SPS-600C MidsRear Door Speakers - NoneDash Speakers - Alpine SPS-600C TweetersSub Amp - Rockford Fosgate T4002Mids+Highs Amp - Rockford Fosgate P4004Subwoofer - P3D215 Fosgate Punch 15Sub Box - Rockford Fosgate designed "powerful" ported box Built by myself i would rather run cheaper but sexier then expensive and fucking ugly.
jeyrapboy Posted October 17, 2010 Report Posted October 17, 2010 I HIGHLY doubt that you will be able to drop 3 inches without some serious mods! You may be able to find some drop springs for them BUT you will have to search for them. Also be careful my buddy just lowered his 4x4 1 1/2 inch and now is having problems with his drive shaft just some things to look out for man.
onelivinlarge Posted October 17, 2010 Report Posted October 17, 2010 i thought u lifted 4x4 not lowered them. 1) lookj to left 2) NOTICE BLKUE 3) ME > Y9OU 4) that is all
jeyrapboy Posted October 17, 2010 Report Posted October 17, 2010 i thought u lifted 4x4 not lowered them. Its all about personal preference man.
onelivinlarge Posted October 17, 2010 Report Posted October 17, 2010 Its all about personal preference man. i agree. but lowering a 4x4 is bad messes shit all up seen in done. seen a driveshaft get ripped off. (that was a interesting one) 1) lookj to left 2) NOTICE BLKUE 3) ME > Y9OU 4) that is all
jeyrapboy Posted October 17, 2010 Report Posted October 17, 2010 Not sure why the haters with lowering a 4 X 4, not like its your fucking money... I lowered mine, because I originally bought it with the intention of raising it, but the aftermarket world did NOT exist for my truck, then I went a different route... And besides, anyone can lower a 2 wheel drive, thats gravy... ^^^ This I am not saying that he shouldn't do it. But you are going to have a real hard time finding parts that just bolt up and drop your car. You may be able to squeeze out a inch and a half with bolt on products. That would save you from having to do a lot of modding.

Loudcivic Posted October 18, 2010 Report Posted October 18, 2010 a guy in town use to have a blazer like yours. he blocked the rear and just loosened up the torsion bars and he was pretty low for a 4wd. that kit looks good. look around im sure there is a s10 blazer forums around with all that you need to know read this http://www.blazerforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=18610 from reading a little bit on there you can get 3 inch drop just by loosening the torsion bars and not affect anything. then you will need 3 inch blocks for the rear and new shocks 2015 silverado crew cab nothing atm but soon...
