Re: 3" drop spindles
no, i've learned that the blazer braking system is different and does not allow the s10 spindles to fit...you gotta get the blazer spindles and yes it sucks... their $100 more expensive...

Re: 3" drop spindles
98+ blazer spindles are different
82-03 s10s/nomas and 83-97 blazer/jimmy spindles are the same and no 3" drop spindles are not made anymore because they were unsafe |

Re: 3" drop spindles
as soon as you get the wheel off you will see how simple it is but here goes anyways.
1. remove wheel 2. remove brakes and ziptie somewhere 3. remove tie rod 4. break loose upper ball joint (after removing nut) 5. break loose lower ball join(after removing nut) 6. install new spindle in reverse order 7. get an alignment |

Re: 3" drop spindles
Buying them used is your best bet for cheap.
The hub is actually a lot easier to install than on a regular s10. 3 bolts from the backside and you're done. |
