What gives a ZR2 the lift? - 4/10/2008 9:11:13 PM    rickyp3278   Posts: 24 Joined: 3/19/2008 Status: offline I'm sure this is a dumb question, but what makes the ZR2 sit so much higher than the LS Blazers? Is it a factory suspension lift? Body lift? Just curious. Help me if you can. Rick Post #: 1

The ZR2 is a completely different vehicle than an S10 blazer to me (different frame, different axles, the tires/wheel wells difference..).  It's not really a 2'' suspension lift if the mounting points are different from where they lie on a S10 blazer...it's a different suspension setup right? Edit:ok maybe not completely different, but it's obviously different enough you have to buy parts specific for a ZR2 as opposed to S10 blazer...different enough < Message edited by WolfPack -- 4/11/2008 10:07:50 PM > _____________________________ 2000 Blazer 4d LS 4x4 - 265/70/15 General Grabber AT2s - Hunter Brush Guard - Surco Roof Rack with IPF 868s - 1.5'' Shackle + Tbar - 2'' BL (in reply to rickyp3278) Post #: 6
