So the gf and I did some numbers crunching last night when it was quiet and determined that I could gather all the parts needed to rebuild my trailblazer and lift it for $1700...that's including the 3" lift and adapters to run full size Chevy wheels and even a set of Chevy wheels and tires I can get for $250.

The above total was best case scenario if I can save the original steering rack...$770 of the above total was lift kit,adapters and fsc wheels. The rest was in parts for both lower control arms, both front struts and rear shocks. And sway bar links. The lower control arms and struts are the bare minimum it needs and that is if I can get away with just replacing seals in the rack.

Lcas are $155 each here...generally add $40-60 to each of the above costs for the struts,lcas,shocks. Plus as said factor in Canadian shipping on the markmc parts which seems to be around 45 extra. And do you have a parts list for the swaybar link parts?

Just checked, one US dollar is $1.06 in Canada. So for $1400 it would add another $84.

See above about the added costs on each part as well and my $1700 estimate becomes clear.

I wasn't saying it would only be $84 more. The $84 would be another cost added.

Now go over to random pics. One just for you.
