Rocker Scraping project...
Well, I have about 21 days before I head out to the boat and I think I may of finally decided what I'm doing with my two rigs. I'll be placing them in heated storage while I'm out to sea, but before they even set one inch of rubber outside of the garage I'm going to do some extensive work on the blazer and some small cosmetics on Brownie.
Brownie's work: -Clean and detail Exterior/Interior -Replace swaybar poly mounts -Possibly buy a set of Torque Thrust II Classics/Torque Thrust D's for it....thats still up in the air. Blazer's work (Rocker Scraping Project): -Install new Alternator -Install new bypass hose -Take care of rust issues in rockers (sand down, cut out and replace depending on extent of rust) -Install new replacement fender -Repaint Cowl Induction hood -Fabricate a fan shroud -Replace older Torque Thrusts II's with the newer ones I purchased and ran on the stepside for 3 months or put the TT D's on this and the polished ones back on the stepside...not sure yet. -Replace Rear Bumper -Replace the goodmark headlight bezels and moldings for the nice used oem ones I just picked up earlier today. -Install my new oem grill -Buy & Install new Belltech 3" Drop Spindles and 2" Drop Coils in front, possibly with a 1 coil cut off of the drop coils. -Buy & Install Air-over-leaf kit and compressor Quite a bit to do and not too much time left for me to do it in. My blazer will be here tomorrow from the shipping company(don't worry I'll take pictures), and we'll go from there. I only had two questions and they are directed more towards those with airride, especially N2TRUX since I remember seeing Air over leafs on yours. Is a good direction to go, or should I buy that new fancy bolt on air bar kit airride has? Second is should I keep the coils up front or do the strong arm conversion? I'm just trying to get the blazer lower and meaner before I leave. Anyway, I'll post an update tomorrow with pics and what not.
