so I have a 2006 2wd trailblazer ls and I don't really want to get a body lift, I want to stick with a suspension lift of about 3 inches and get 265/70/17 tires and to be used just for some mild off roading and look sexy lol :safari:. but I would really like some opinions on some good kits I should be looking at. im lookin to spend about 500 on a good lift just need to find a good one and one that would fit on a 2wd and not just a 4x4 so if you have any tips for me that would be greatly appreciated :D I had my tb for about 2 months and recently got 20% tints which is my very first upgrade on it and looks great.. also looking to get a new air intake and some halo lights

Do a bit of digging, tons of info out there. Be sure to dig through stuff, good threads about what lift/tires/spacer combos will work the best and gearing questions/answers.

If you don't go with Cable's lift, check out Mark's site. Awesome dude, good products.

Because you're only running 2wd, you could get a cheap ebay "outside the strut" spacer. It'll give you the lift you're looking for on a budget.
Then again, Mark makes the highest quality lifts for our platform and top of the line customer service, AND he's a member here. The choice is yours
