I am buying a 1993 chevy s10 blazer lt tahoe 4dr with the 4wd button.

It has a rough country suspension installed.

Does any one know how good it is?
If not how can i tell?

how long has the lift been on? the ROUGH COUNTRY 2" LIFT adjusts the torsion bars which increase the CV shaft angle. Over time, adjusted t-bars will cause increased wear on the CV shafts, and the ball joints can wear out much quicker than normal... you might want to check the condition the whole front end suspension and make sure everything works properly and smoothly. you might also want to ask if the ball joints have ever been replaced and ask if the previous owner was a heavy off-roader

The previous owner was a teenager when he had it, he bought it off the lot brand new.
I belive that he had it put on in the 1990's but i am not shure. I will look at the paper work later.

It was a 1 personed owned vehicle.
