Where did you guys get the best deal on a BDS body lift for a '02 2WD Trailblazer LS?
I'm new to this board and Trailblazers, so I need a little help with mine.
Here is my current trail rig.

I'm a Yota guy trying to work on a GM, so yeah, I need help. lol...

The 'lift' is the same as 4x4 version, I'd imagine. Search around, I know someone just posted a link that was around 75 bux cheaper than through BDS' distributors. AND, shipping was cheap (atleast to my address). If only this post was around 'before' I did mine.. tsk tsk :)
Good luck!

The OP was about body lift. I think the Ebay auctions are all for suspension lift. But the vendor might also sell their body lifts, so I just emailed him. No answer yet.
Oops. Just got one. Good price!

Unless you already have the suspension lift, I would recommend IT over over the body lift. It is about the same price, more functional, and easier to install (from everything i have heard -- AKA read on trailvoy.com) than the body lift.

I'm confused as well. He has a very trail-capable SAS Toyota, and wants to lift his 2WD TB. I guess I should ask the standard Roadie question now: What's your mission, VsToy? We can help a lot more if we knew what you intended to do with your TB. Rocks? Mud? Mall?

Just a mall crawler. Not a rock crawler, and the occasional fishing trip.

Just a mall crawler.As Groucho Marks used to say: "You just said the magic word!" Here's your prize (take it with the good natured intention it's offered in). The worthiness of your Toy just has to rub off a little on the TB. :woot:

Have y'all noticed that some sellers on ebay are selling SMaxx hockey puck knockoffs for pretty cheap? I wonder how they would hold up. Of course I'm not in the market for them since I already have the BDS lift. I just thought it was interesting and never saw it before when searching ebay.

Fronts only, but you gotta be nuts to pay $120 a pair for that design.

edit to my post colorado guys have been using hockey pucks for body lift not suspension. gives about one inch of cheap lift. just a thought for those not wanting 2" or cant afford the 2" yet
