Wheel Well clearance - 8/23/2008 3:52:54 AM    Blazer_boy Posts: 93 Joined: 10/24/2007 Status: offline Hey Guys its been a while. any ways strait to my question. i have a 1991 Blazer s-10 4 door. i just recently got 31''s for it and put them on. they fit fine....one slight problem i get huge rubbing on my inner fender closest to the cab. these should fit no problem... my possible issue is my springs are sagging. short of replacing them what other options do i have to gain a bit more clearance? _____________________________ 91 Blazer...Currently Stock. 91 Chevy Sprint Cl.

That''s what I had to do for my tires since my rims pushed the tire much farther out. And what kind of lift do you have again? _____________________________ 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 Blazer_boy) Post #: 2

RE: Wheel Well clearance - 8/24/2008 12:44:38 PM    WolfPack Posts: 2788 Joined: 10/30/2007 From: Raleigh, NC Status: offline 2'' or 3'' would do you fine. Im not sure if a 2'' is available for 1st gens...I think it''s only the 3'' from PA. You can always trim your fender back _____________________________ 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 Blazer_boy) Post #: 8
