Re: 72, 2wd blazer

So you're running about a 7/8 drop with a bolt in notch and no issues bottoming out??? Wow, looks like I've got a game plan lol. The truck looks great. Could you pull a measurement from the center of the wheel to the fender lip for my reference? I'm trying to figure out what drop my blazer has so that I can figure out what I want to do to tweak the suspension.

I can do that. However, the truck is in storage but I can go there tomorrow and measure.

Sorry for the delay, I kinda forgot Anyways, where I have the truck stored is quite tight so I was unable to get a level in there and be super accurate. So here's what I got, from the bottom of the fender lip to the center of the hub is approximately 14-1/2" at the rear and approximately 14-1/2" at the front. Front wheels are 20"x8" with 245/35/20 tires. The rears are 22"x9.5" with 265/35/22. Hope this helps.

Jason.
