I have to say that is a very sweet setup.... Something I would not mind having done to my 72. You know that we will need more pics of the cage right?....lol

Someone on another post asked how you get in the backseat? You should post that picture of your cage and write "VERY CAREFULLY"

Yes, the rear shocks do poke through the floor. It should pull about 16" of travel in both the front and rear. As soon as I get it back I'll definitely get more pics of the suspension.

It's all custom to my Blazer but I think he'll sell the front suspension as a kit. Give Nate(the owner) an email or call. His website is www.blitzkriegoffroad.com
