Been searching and trying to find as much info as possable. SL Looks like it will be in all better quaity, but pani in the ass to install compaired to TM. But TM looks like you need the SL 2" lift upper control arms so you dont have any camber problems. Im only considering these 2 kits. I deal with both suppliers at work, so I get them at cost. Any info would be great!!!

You will be happier with the Superlift F.I.T. lift. Since it is Frame Integrated Technology (pain in the a$$ to install) it will be stronger, sturdier, and probably last longer. I believe it also has re-angled upper control arms to correct the camber angle problem. Superlift also makes some sweet skid plates to use with their F.I.T. lifts.. <my $0.02

Thats what I was thinking too. A bit more $$, but looks like it will be worth it. Looking at doing it mid-late summer.

Here's my Superlift Build thread http://www.blazerforum.com/m_117938/tm.htm . Also check out the BDS 5" kits as well. They are really good too.
