Mine is built using the stock c4 geometry and yes the blazer will weigh more but it still should handle a lot better than the stock suspension. I could see changing the geometry if this thing was at stock ride height as the roll center would be pretty bad but my ride height on the front is going to be around 4". Hope this helps and we will see one day if the stock c4 geometry works worth a crap or not
Thanks
