i have some questions for the blazer guru's of the site.... first off i want to lift my 97 blazer LT 4x4. and i dont want to go all out on a 6" lift, what i want is more ground clearance, to be able to fit bigger tires, to be able to go off roading and still use it as my DD. i was wondering about a body lift, add-a-leafs, torsion bar cranks and what not. i wanted to know all of your opinion's on this subject. secondly i wanted to know what the biggest tire i could fit is if i do the body lift ect. or if i were to go all out on the 6" lift how big could i go there?..what im working with is a bone stock 97 blazer..what should i do?

after i posted the thread i realized this. i have an LS not an LT and this is probably in the wrong section to get the answers i want.

Please utilize the search feature. This has been discussed many, many times.

LS and LT are option packages and wont affect your suspension. If you have a ZR2, well thts a blazer of a different color.

As for your questions, check the self help section. I did a write up on what fits. Once you find it and give it a read, post up any more questions you may have.
