..$20 says its the bumpstops. I was just assuming they were already taken off. Hack em off the frame and then post a pic.

I have done 2" spindles, 2" springs and shocks in the front and 3" drop leafs and 3" blocks in the rear. The truck still sits like 2" higher in the rear and has a rake to the front like a drag racer. Anyone have any suggestions on how to get the rear down more where I think it should be? |

Is it resting on rubber bump stops in the rear? Are your rear shocks bottomed out holding the truck up in the back? If they are you should buy air shocks. |

Your going to have to C-notch the rear..If you have an S10 (And 90% of people do) Anymore than a 4" drop in the rear requires it. Your running a 6". I dont see this being any diffrent on a Blazer. |

I had a 97 blazer that sat even with no c notch, had a 98 that was bagged had to notch it. Something is holding it up. Idk if its leaf springs,bump stops,bottomed out shocks what but something is holding it up. look to see if the frame rails are resting on the rear axle if they are then layframe is right if not then you need to find the culprit. HELL IF LAYFRAME IS RIGHT THEN YO0U SHOULD BE RIDING LIKE A HORSE AND BUGGY. Sorry for the caps just noticed it..i have to look at the keyboard to type lol. But yeah you should already know if the frame is beating the axle if you are driving it. |
