Pics of my "Mud Buggy"

Here's some photos of my Blazer that I'm fixing up to play in the Mud with. It's got a built 350, and 3/4 ton axles with 4.88 gears and lockers. I'm anxious to get it going! Thanks Jeffspower for the tires!! Now I've gotta get seats in it, bumpers and the grill!

Looks like fun. Don't forget a cage before you get crazy. You don't want to flip a topless truck!

Re: Pics of my "Mud Buggy"

You guys are right...definitely gotta get some sort of top on it..and a roll bar. I've got both of them for it....but they need some work.

I'm planning on working on it more today.

Yukon, I think my other K5 is very comfy in my garage...only get's out when it's nice and sunny!

Re: Pics of my "Mud Buggy"

Well...I got some more done today, so here's a couple more pics! I took out the Blazer and drove around a little, also set a roll bar in it and put the hood on. It's gonna take a little time to get things all finished up....but I'm getting there!

Re: Pics of my "Mud Buggy"

Thanks Guys! The tires are 38's..and they seem to clear good so far. It's got a 4" suspension lift and 3" body lift. I can tell you one thing....It's a big jump to get up in the driver's seat!!
