Thread: '85 Blazer 2 door 4x4 2/2 drop & stock shocks?

Well I still haven't cranked down the T-bars, been busy and/or dodging downpours here in the rainforest of the Pacific Northwest. I figured I'd post a few before pics... As you can see she's sportin' the 4 by stance, not a bad lookin' '85 though 'eh? Stay tuned for the after shots, Mike

x2 My truck is 3" lower in front and no problems. With lowering blocks your rear shocks remain in the same location, so no issues there.

With drop blocks on the rear the shock position does not change.

stock shocks will work fine

I call bullshit on stock shock, I have lowered multiple 4wd s-series and if stock shocks are retained, the valving in the shock is off at the new height, it may work ok but the rebound is not the same. There fore it is a bouncier ride which is not that noticeable on a straight road but as soon as you hit a corner somewhat hard and there is a disturbance in the road the truck can get squirrelly. Now if you can get syclone/ typhoon spec shocks...
