New to the forum: 1970 Blazer

Hey dudes I am new to the 67-72 Blazer scene. I have only owned a 72 GMC shortbed 4x4 a couple years ago and didnt have it very long. I have had the blazer about two weeks and am really enjoying it. I traded my 66 c10 for it straight across and am very happy witht the deal. The blazer has a newer 350 off a 90s chevy truck. 4 spd man tranny and dana44 8 lug in front 14 bolt in the rear. I dont really have too many plans for it YET lol but I can never leave anything alone. Heres a pic of the blazer the day i got it home.

Thanks dudes!! Planning on installing/adding a 1" block to the rear, I hate the way it sits lower in the rear. It has a 4" lift on it now.

Re: New to the forum: 1970 Blazer

Thanks bouncytruck!! I bought a 1" block kit from autozone but the ubolts are about an inch too short so I am going to have to order new ubolts. I'm happy with the way it looks for now lol.
