Re: 1/2 ton to 1 ton

rough country is probabley a cheap kit to get your blazer lifted, but it all depends on how high you want to go, i wouyldnt go any higher than 4'', if you go over 4'' there alot of little things you have to change like steering knuckle and driveshaft angles

Re: 1/2 ton to 1 ton

You know what? I went from a 1500 to a 3/4/1 ton. I put 1 ton springs under it from a ambulance and put in a 4 inch lift after to fit my 35's.
