4" springs in front w/block in rear (I'll be swapping that soon) with 315/70/17 bfg a/t's. 3of 4 shocks were trashed and the left front leafsprings was broken, it rides 100% better without sounding like I have 200 ft of chains under it somewhere. I wasnt sure about the rims at first but I think they look ok, kinda makes it look like a hot wheels car ha ha. Took me and a couple buddies about 8 hours to get it done but I think it turned out pretty well. Now I just have to wait for paint and it'll be done. Oh and that big oil stain is not from my Blazer either

Sweet!!! That looks freakin' awesome!!!

I want a Blazer so bad.......maybe one day, if the gf will let me.

Ric83 · 06-30-2004, 10:56 AM

Awesome!!!! That looks really good!!

80BIG10 · 06-30-2004, 11:01 AM

I like it. I would jump all over a Blazer like that

PHOENIX · 06-30-2004, 11:53 AM

YES! that is sweet!!!
The blue and grey paint looks sic!
Any more pictures of it?

About the wheels; I think it would look better with some wheels that are painted or powder coated. Because of the paint, lift, and toughness of the blazer I think a wheel that isnt shiny would probably look better. But those dont look bad at all.

Looks great. What do you need to paint?

cochino12 · 06-30-2004, 05:54 PM
