Does anyone know if there is a lift available for the trailblazer style trucks?? mine is actually a buick rainer, would like to lift it a bit any thoughts?
Me007gold said:Both body and suspension lifts are available. One of our own members (MarkMC) makes a great product, available in 2.5" and 3" lift other suspension lifts are available from BDS, and Rough Country. Body lifts are available from one of our members HighVoltage @ 3" or Zone off road @ 2". Many members are running Marks products and have no complaints

snowyredenvoy said:Thank you, hah I just bought moroe reflex shocks for my envoy and want to put a lift on it, figures... Would they top out and make a bad clunking noise over bumps? Cause then I am sofl. And wasted $140.... Or can I use them? Thank you, I really appreciate it! Sorry again about the![]()

snowyredenvoy said:I think there to stiff for my liking. I just hear all these threads about people's shocks topping out and them making a clunk.... But i will just leave stock on and try and sell Monroe's i guess then get Longer shocks. Like The skyjackers...
Sparky said:I thought he had a few variations other than 2.5" and 3", for leveling purposes
And I assume that those wheel spacers or adapters are $209 for a set of 4, and not $209 each, right?
ScarabEpic22 said:I ordered a 3" suspension lift from Mark back in August to throw on my 02 TB for my brother to take to Montana for the winter. Great product, easy to install (Ive pulled the front suspension apart at least 4 times so I knew exactly what had to be done), and replaces the weak rubber part. Bought a new set of Bilstein HDs for the front, this is my 2nd set up front and I dont plan on pulling it apart again so I figured the extra $120 for new front shocks was worth it.
I ordered some Pro Comp ES9000 series shocks that guys on OffroadTB suggested. They are absolutely great, a little stiff, but the proper length so its not stressing the shocks all the time.
markmc said:Did you have to order the dust boots separate?
What is the boot part# ?
snowyredenvoy said:Whats the advantages over the 2.5? other than hight? What other parts are needed? Stock lenght shocks would be out of question temporarly? Does this put alot more stress on other parts of the truck vs the 2.5? well its a half inch so most likely not.Thanks![]()

snowyredenvoy said:Danget, you people got me!Lets not get any higher lmao. Looks like thats the best way to go. Just with very moderate offroading... I will be rolling around with a pretty big voy lol. Biggest I will ever see!
Another reason to park next to a voy haha, Also how will it effect my upper and lower control arms? Could this casue significant damage in long run? Whats the side effects? Sorry for all The questions. Damn neewbiesss lmao

Sparky said:What I'm not sure on is if the alignment specs change any when you do this, but I do know you WILL want an alignment after the lift.
fishsticks said:You are correct. The UCA flip causes a positive camber condition.
I need to get that writeup over here as well, don't I?
Sparky said:Yes, yes you do
I wonder how many shops can figure out how to do an alignment properly on a lifted GMT360.

Sparky said:How'd you get a 4 inch lift on yours? I thought 3 inches was the max you could go without binding front CVs?

djthumper said:Why yes you do.
The shop I go to does a great job. When I bring it in the guys asks me what changes I made or I had was just rough on it on the trails. Firestone's lifetime alignment is the way to go.
fishsticks said:The last alignment I had done was at a Firestone. They aligned it with a bent inner tie rod.![]()
