tvblazer78 · 11-12-2008, 09:59 PM

Never seen 4x4 blazer with bags, but I did see a 70 c10 4x4 with bags. It looked cool.. Please keep us updated..

**N2TRUX** · 11-12-2008, 10:19 PM

Dang, how many trucks are you going to buy? That's like number 10 isn't it?

jrsmith_2010 · 11-12-2008, 10:22 PM

haha, yea i only have 2 as of now

jrsmith_2010 · 11-12-2008, 11:18 PM

so how can it be possiable to bag a 4wd?

jrsmith_2010 · 11-12-2008, 11:56 PM

and also, to convert to a 2wd (if needed to bag) how can i change the rear, casue the front would be 5 lug and the rear 6 lug?

**N2TRUX** · 11-13-2008, 12:08 AM

Unless it's a smoking deal, don't buy it. If you want a 2wd, then buy a 2wd. Trying to convert it to 2wd can be done but it's not worth the hassle if you can avoid it up front.

jrsmith_2010 · 11-13-2008, 12:17 AM

how can u bag a 4x4? casue if i can get it to lay on the ground when crouzin, and then during winter it will get around like a dream!

i have no clue due to the leafs in the front

Search the suspension section for earlier this year/late last year. There was someone in the lower 48 down there that bagged their fathers '70-'72 half ton 4x4 had pics of the build up and finished project deflated,maxed out and at normal ride height. I know it's there but have yet to find it again.

Hoods69BadBowTie · 11-13-2008, 04:53 AM

I think if you want a 2wd you should just find one. Would save a lot of time and hassle from trying to convert the 4x4 to 2wd. I have seen one 4x4 running around up here that has bags on it. Sorry no pics of it.

Its designed for Jeeps, but I can't imagine there isn't a work-around way of putting a system on a Blazer or 'Burban or pickup!

vern350 · 12-04-2008, 10:58 PM

I remember reading the tread BLE 'BURBAN is talking about, worth your time searching. Give you an idea of the amount of work involved.

To some of the misguided a 4x4 is desirable as is, or lifted, not lowered. Please don't

Walts_restoration · 12-05-2008, 04:13 AM

Not many 2wds around here, there was a 78 in tongi, yellow or orange iirc.

Theres a difference between a bagged 4x4, and a bagged 2wd, you cannot slam a 4x4... well without severe modification. lol.

Ive seen the 2wd swap done before, if the bodys nice enough on the 4x4 it may be a consideration, and the right price. Lots of 4x4s i see near us.

884x4Sub · 12-07-2008, 12:03 PM

truth be known I prefer a slammed ride but for pulling my boat I need 4wd in the areas I go.......you could do it but by the time you were done youd have way more $$ into the truck than Im willing to spend.
