Well it hasn't done it since cleaning the bowling the carb. It's several degrees colder right now that may be helping the situation, but I've put a few miles on it with no problems. Still not convinced its fixed tho.

Damn wheel bearing took a **** today. Fixed and back on the road, that sucked tho. Ditched the no name turbo mufflers for some magnaflows. Increadible improvement. Got my inspection and started building some inner panels for the bed area. Hope to get them installed tomorrow and leave thurs morn to head to CTC in Biloxi.

I'm LOVING this build. Very nice.

We have similar taste, since I'm running the same wheels, and a 68 clip on mine also

Alright BigCountryx, I showed my wife a picture of your Blazer feeling sure she wouldn't like your rims. She shocked the hell out of me by saying she really liked them. I hate to be a pain in the butt but, do you have tire sizes and definitive rim sizes that I could use as a guide?

You have a really sweet Blazer and the color is unique and cool!

shawno72 · 10-11-2012, 11:27 AM

Looks like some good times for sure.

BigCountryx · 10-12-2012, 12:44 AM

The standard setup.
20x8.5 5.25" bs 255/40 Front
20x10 5.5" bs. 295/40 Rear

I saw you running through the Ocean Springs site yesterday. It looks real good!

BigCountryx · 10-14-2012, 02:45 PM

Thanks, so my old girl made it to the beach and back, we had a blast.

Only casualty of the trip lmao

So of course I'm not "done", it'll end up bagged and there's a few more things to tighten up, but this "build" is over and it seemed to be a hit. Got lots of love this week. My goal was CTC 2012 and now, been there, done that, can't wait to go back. Got rooms booked already!
