I have a 99 blazer 4x4 with 2inch add aleafs and 2inch tbar keys. if i get 2inch rear shackles this will lift my blazer 4inchs total out back. But im woundering how can i get another 2inches out front i was thinkin if i get new upper controller arms like they use on the superlift 2inch lifts but that would do it but now im thinkin not. So would it raise the front? And ive herd of spindles that can raise the front does anyone know?

2" is the max you want to go without dropping the front diff or getting longer CV shafts. The CV angles become too high if you go too tall without addressing them. That is why the 6" kits cost so much.

i was wondering y they cost over 2grand and i was thinking the fullsize trucks have a similar front 4wd system so would the longer (if they are) cv axles fit on my front end if i really needed longer ones

Are you asking if you can use fullsize chevy axles I don't think you would be able to!!!
