Body Lift? - 11/4/2007 6:43:29 PM    AtreyuManiac   Posts: 52 Joined: 11/4/2007 Status: offline With a body lift i know the basics of it. But i still have a lot to learn about it. A 3" body lift for my 94 s10 blazer runs me about $150 give or take. But with the body lift where would such things go with it such as your gas tank. Would it still be accesable through the normal gas door. What about all the electronics and pedals and what not. Would they all line up with their original spots. What overall modifications would you have to do with a body lift other than just putting blocks under the body? _____________________________ Completely Stock Red 1994 S10 Blazer 2 Door Alpine CDA-9883 Deck Alpine Type R Sub in Q-Logic Ported Box Alpine MRP-M450 Mono Sub Amp Post #: 1
