It's a GM rollpan. Got her off ebay for $60 and the tag light set for $30. Nice beacause it bolts right up and the bed has the holes already for it.

My question is, what exactly is sooooo different between the normal Blazer suspension vs the X-treme Blazer vs the normal S-10 that even with a 5" drop, I'm still sitting a mile high in the air? I feel like I got jipped! I don't sit nowhere near as low as civil which looks great, and even Wicked has a 5" drop and sits lower that me! I know the coils need time to settle, but still... What gives?

re: Post pics of your drops

You can see with the lines going down the side of your Blazer, that it lines up almost perfectly with the very top of the front rims. Mine's still about 1.5" above the top of the front rims. Hmm... Now I'm starting to wonder if I was actually sent the correct Belltech coils. Out of the truck, they looked nearly as tall as the stock coils, but I wasn't really comparing. Just looking at them briefly from a short distance.

BTW, I'm sitting at 28.75" in the front on both sides.

did you get your alignment after? if not can you take a pic to show how much your camber is off if any? i plan on installing my 3" blocks again and cutting a coil off for TEMPORARY use untill i can afford good shit after i start my new job monday. tired of monster truckin if you know what i mean.
