Here are a couple pics of my truck next to a C10.





My tires are 35 x 12.50 x 16 Super Swamper SSR's on 16 x 8 rims.

The front lift is a combination of 4" Tuff Country lift springs up front with an added 3/8" spring and I have also added a center pinned lift block that has 2 1/2 degree angle in it. The block is 5" long, 2" wide and roughly 1 1/4" tall, measured at the center of the axle. From the top of the tire to the highest point of the front wheel well measures 13".

The back suspension consists of Offroad Design's Shackle Flip which gains 4" of lift using the stock springs. Recently I pulled out a broken leaf and added 2 1/2 inches of additional leafs to gain some weight hauling capacity. That netted a total of 7 1/2" rear lift.

My Blazer has a combination of a 4" Rancho lift and 3" Rough Country body lift. I also added another overload to the rear for an addition 3/4". Right now I'm running 36x14.50x16.50 Swamper radials on 10x16.50 rims. When the rigs at full suspension drop. I get front of rear wheel well contact.

The following is copied from another post:

The picture first has to be uploaded to a web site (msn, free photo-i etc.). Once you have it on a web site you want to go to that site and make the picture large (no thumbnail). Right click on the picture and go to "properties" at the bottom of the window. Highlight the address (URL) and then right click on the highlighted address. Select "copy".
Now, come back to this site and start your post. To get the picture to show up here you will need to paste (right click and then select "paste") the address (URL) in your post with this in front of it..... [img] and this right after it........ [/img]

So it should look something like this:

Here's my 67 with 8" lift. The front springs are Skyjacker SoftRide. The rear springs were custom built. Rancho RS9000's with a Pro Comp dual steering stabilizer. I did away with the factory steering setup and went with crossover steering. The wheels are 15x14 Weld Typhoons and the tires are 35x14.5x15 Super Swamper SSR radials. Also went with Earls stainless braided brake hoses. More to come soon...........
