OK, how many with blazers laying frame??? Or Close - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Seems that is is going to be hard to get the rear low using the trailing arms and not much room for a 4 link. Thinking abougt some custom trailing arms like the air ride tech arms would help with clearence. Anyone have pics of finished product? I already have the 8" notch for the rear and the bags mounts that mount to the rearend.
Thanks

if space is a issue you could run a 2link with a pan hard bar, that would keep the 4link bars from coming up into the cab, you would still have a cnotch that can be covered over easily

You already know where I stand. I think Bagged74 is gonna be the closest to what you're looking for- his trailing arms are a pretty good way to avoid frame interference problems. Do something like that and stack as much block in there as you can...

I talked to suicide doors and he said he could build me a 20 parallel 4 link that would be 20"s long. He said it would still work good at that lenght. I will have to do some measuring and see if that will work.

gringoloco · 11-09-2007, 09:36 PM

I like the triangulated superlift from suicidedoors. If I were to link mine, that is the way I would go...

i lay frame. i have a 2 link with a panard. but mines an 81. you could do the parralel setup from sd, but where are you gonna put your bags?

Just picked up a 2wd Blazer to prototype a rear kit on... hoping to have it available around the first of the year... the four-link will be designed to allow the frame to lay with the appropriate sized notch (the "appropriate" sized notch will be part of the complete kit). It'll be 100% bolt-on.

It is a 70 to 72 would be my guess, What else would Nate get to play with

Hey Nate you should check into one of those DropMenbers for your new blazer, I hear they work OK

Also I have a 70 that will be laying frame in a whole new way! No details sorry.

It will be a Dropmember poster child. Who knows when I will have time to finish it.

Hopefully it won't get stuck out back with all my other trucks...

71... it was an abondoned project. I purchased the tub, doors, and frame from the customer.

We already had replaced the front floor sections, inner and outer rocker panels (both sides), rocker boxes, lower A pillars, lower B pillars, hadn't quite finished attaching the modified SWB bedside skins, and hung some new doors. And we smoothed out the firewall.

Here's a before pic...

Did he spend all his money on the rendering?

Mines close with the trailing arms but I wanted to keep the back seat. I'm thinking dropmember in the front next year. So I can run a little bigger wheel and cut down on bump steer.

FRENCHBLUE72 · 11-21-2007, 06:16 PM

Nate is that blazer this one?

That's the one... plans have changed a little though for the end result.

Nice looking ride you have their. I don't know if it is the color of the Blazer or the angle of the shot but yours is the first one I have liked with the seats w/intergrated belts. Are they sitting flat on the floor or on their stock mounts?

They are on the stock mounts. I had some in the back at one time but they were too tall and looked kinda silly.
