Re: It's home

You posted some great pics in the "Any pictures of fullsize blazers on 20's" thread, your truck has come a long way and is looking great. Very nice detail work on the chassis and I was diggin that you kept the frame blue. Do you remember where you bought the trans cross member? And what size exhaust are you running? It looks like the exhaust pipe diameter steps down once at the collector and once at the tailpipes?

Re: It's home

The crossmember came with the front drop member kit that I bought.

I believe my friend did 2.5" on the exhaust.. The mufflers are the same as when it was just dropped so I am thinking he used the 2.5..

Hoping this weekend to get some work on it to get it running and under it's own power trying to get it ready for a show coming up the first weekend of April.. The exhaust goes all the way back from the collector and hangs under the axle. Made it a little easier to go under the axle and it's not in the way of anything so it was a easy decision for him.

Appreciate the compliments.. Its got a long way to go but it's getting closer..
