New pics of the 2wd.

Just thought I'd post a pic of the old 2wd with it's new wheels. They are my 17 inch Eagle 212's off my old '82 2wd blazer. Also got new dual exhaust with 3 chamber Flowmasters. I can actually drive it now. I need to put some miles on it. It was last inspected in 1996. Still have a few little bugs to work out. It seems to have some ground problems. No horn, fuel gauge reads way high, no fan switch high speed, etc... I will post more as things change. Lolife99.

Fuelcellguy,... Any chance I could get a "lower profile" fuel cell? I would want the fill and sending unit in the stock location,... just not so close to the ground. Any chance you'll be making one, (OR TWO) for your soon to be 2wd?!? Let me know. lolife99.

I will probably be making several. It is actually the same basic tank as the truck cell.

This pic shows how far the 16 gallon version of the truck tank hangs down.
