Re: HI from Afghanistan (My 72 Blazer)

The 6 inch and 38 should be perfect. You will more than likely need to extend the driveshafts as my stock front one is about maxed out on a 5 inch lift. The rear I replaced after going to 3/4 ton axles. Anything over 35-36 you are on borrowed time with the stock 12 bolt. I blew up two and replaced the third with a one ton rear before it grenaded. That's on 35s and a heavy foot. Front I converted to 3/4 ton with everything from the knuckle out from a 78 k20. It gives you a bigger outer wheel bearing and if you get the axleshafts you will get a bigger ujoint as well. The 36 will fit with the 4 inch lift but may rub with high articulation. I cut the front lower fender on mine to stuff the tires a little better.
