Re: dumb question

Re: dumb question
NO, not from the factory.
Some folks are using sway bars from mid 70s trucks and modifiyng them to fit/work on our year Blazers. Check the FAQ, should be some info there I would hope.

Re: dumb question
I put some very flexy Alcan front springs on my '71. To compensate for the tippy nature of the soft springs I also installed a mid-70s swaybar. As 71jimmy mentioned, I think there's a FAQ on this. I know BobK made some nice ones. Here are a couple of pictures of the mounts I fabricated and a link to more if you are interested.

Re: dumb question
 Very nice work.....I was just making sure i wasn't missing some suspension, that is posed to be there. I'll probably work on adding them myself when i make my torque bars. I can kill tippy and axle wrapup all in the same project

Re: dumb question
Nope no sway bars on First Gen Blazers
I added a front one from this company: http://www.addco.net/ But now that my K5 is a trailer queen I don't use it anymore.
