i want to lift my blazer. i dont have the $$$$ to get the 6" that i want. the one i was givin doesnt work with my blazer. i was thinkink 1.5" t-bar crank. 2" shackles. 2" body lift and larger tires. somewhere around 31"X11.5"X15" possibly? i want some steel rock crawler rims with a bead lock (legal in VT) and i think i want my rims to have some backspacing. could i do 3.75 inches?.....will the way i want to lift it work out for me?

3.75" backspace will still work on your truck but they will stick out. It might require some triming of your fender so the tires dont rub. I have 32's with a 4.5" backspace and my wheels stick out 1.5"-2".
