Damn sharp looking ride! I love those Xtreme wheels. BTW, that looks like "OBT" you're cruisin' down there!

556mm · 07-14-2008, 12:35 AM

until i read his location i was like "i didn't know they had palm trees in connecticut"

civil · 07-14-2008, 12:00 PM

man i love my coy's but i totally want those zq8's on my truck. Nice clean truck man.

dbikeriderkid88 · 07-14-2008, 12:20 PM

Yes u r right. That is "OBT" that we took the pics on. I am goin to motorcycle mechanics institute in orlando for college right now. Graduating in a 3 weeks so i have to ake the front drop springs and rear blocks out for the ride back to CT. I-95 roads suck.

LS1 comin soon! Thanks for the comments guys!!!

^^^ what he said

dbikeriderkid88 · 07-15-2008, 12:54 AM

It's a GM rollpan. Got her off ebay for $60 and the tag light set for $30. Nice beacause it bolts right up and the bed has the holes already for it.

slammdsonoma38 · 07-15-2008, 01:54 PM

My question is, what exactly is sooooo different between the normal Blazer suspension vs the X-treme Blazer vs the normal S-10 that even with a 5" drop, I'm still sitting a mile high in the air? I feel like I got jipped! I don't sit nowhere near as low as civil which looks great, and even Wicked has a 5" drop and sits lower that me! I know the coils need time to settle, but still... What gives?

shortS10owner · 07-22-2008, 01:18 AM

3.5/5.5 total, 2 inch spindles up front, 4 inch blocks out back on top of zq8 suspension

yeah yours doesnt look like a 5" drop up front.. heres my 5/3"block and 2nd longest leaf pulled..

and those are the stock 235/70/15's

BlazerChops · 07-22-2008, 08:55 PM

You can see with the lines going down the side of your Blazer, that it lines up almost perfectly with the very top of the front rims. Mine's still about 1.5" above the top of the front rims. Hmm... Now I'm starting to wonder if I was actually sent the correct Belltech coils. Out of the truck, they looked nearly as tall as the stock coils, but I wasn't really comparing. Just looking at them briefly from a short distance.

BTW, I'm sitting at 28.75" in the front on both sides.

did you get your alignment after? if not can you take a pic to show how much your camber is off if any? i plan on installing my 3" blocks again and cutting a coil off for TEMPORARY use untill i can afford good shit after i start my new job monday. tired of monster truckin if you know what i mean.

295-50-15 toyos · 07-30-2008, 08:25 PM

First of all guys this is a great place for inspiration of drop techniques on our dimes. I have here my 1999 4 banger sonoma, with toyo proxes s/t 295-50-15 tires front and rear on ion series 171 black rims, backspace is 3 inches on 8 inch rims. Front fender height is 25.5 inch and 27 in the rear. I had used belltech everything for a 3/3 drop. 3" coils with the chevy lean isolator bushing, rear leafs, the EXPENSIVE perfomnce shocks by belltech, and put both the swaybars under it also. I will post more info this is all from the top of my head right now. Here are some pics.

crazyfortats · 07-31-2008, 06:52 PM

Heres my truck. let me know what you think and no the gold wheels are not staying on. i have a chrome set just havnt got to put them on yet.

swamp_rat · 08-02-2008, 09:30 PM

just cause noone comments and gives you immediate attention you say noone likes your truck? lol. people do more than live on this forum. its nice but gold isnt a color wheel id put on anything. not even a huffy.

crazyfortats · 08-02-2008, 10:10 PM

Sorry i just wanted some attention.

just making sure i didnt kill this tread. i was trying to joke around. please dont take it serious.

The wheels are wire wheels. they are all i had with tires. the gold is not staying for to long. i just did a 3/3 drop and didnt like the stock wheels.

I do really like at the pics in this post. keep the great pics coming guys.

my only rubbing issues are with the large bumps which is very rare. and i rub the front sway when my wheel is turned lock to lock. other then that. its really free of rubbing issues.

Wybrow · 08-11-2008, 01:07 AM

bumpin it up

replaced my old torch-lowered front coils today with 2" belltechs, and replaced with oem shocks as well, rides sooooooooo much better i cant believe it.

295-50-15 toyos · 08-11-2008, 11:53 PM

Guys I need some help, I dropped my sonoma 4 cyclinder with all belltech, 3 inch coils in the front (with the driver side bushing for chevy lean), 3 inch leafs in the rear and went with their high performance shocks. Also have front and rear swaybars from them. I am running 295-50-15 front and rear, fender heights are as follows:
Driver front = 26 3/16"
Passenger front = 26 11/16"

Driver Rear = 28 1/16"
Passenger Rear = 28 5/16"

Right now i can fit a Dime between the driver front tire and fender lip, and a 50cent $1 coin on the passenger.

Now I do realize that I can't get this perfect but its half an inch off on the front still and leaning to the driver side. What would be best to again try to correct this damn chevy lean. Cut Coil on passenger side, if so how much? or should I order through belltech one of the coil spacers? either way I gotta get if figured out i have plans for 285-30-18 (24.8")fronts and 335-30-18 (25.9") rear and dropping it additionally 2 more inches for a total 5/5 drop. At that height you WILL notice it wouldn't you? I will still have just over 3 inches of frame to ground space after all tire and drop is put into consideration. also it is a 1999 sonoma if that matters
