i need to take some updated pics,but the blazer is out side and by the time i get to the shop its dark out side(yes it sucks but i have to work on other peoples stuff to pay the bills).
but all i did was chop off the end,monve it up 2 inches and reinforce it( an old trick from my lowridin days) that coupled with 3 inch spindles inabled me to only drop the body 3 inches and keep the factory floor

With a 27" tall tire (255 35 20) you can slide a piece of paper between the tire and blower motor with the truck LAYING FRAME. Anything taller and you'll need some mods.

so with everything out of the way what size tires can you run and still lay frame?

You can lay frame with a 30" tall tire. You will need to run a 3" spindle and a firestone bag to accomplish this.
