99 Blazer frame

Hey all. I am sick of looking at my frame. I have a 99 4dr blaze. Is there any way to hide the frame a little? I think I remember reading that older models used a shorter bushing. Could I change that and get the body a little closer to the frame? Just not quite ready for a body drop yet I guess.

Thanks all.

Glen

Re: 99 Blazer frame

you could paint the frame black or undercoat it to make it look a little bit better. otherwise i would suggest a body kit if it really bothers you that much. you could try some lower bushings but i dont think you would get the drop that you are looking for with that. otherwise you just have to deal with it.

if you do get a body kit, try to get an xtreme valance and then xtreme rear steps.

IMHO a bodykit would look on a 4dr. but thats jus me

thanks guys. that's what I was afraid of. I already have it painted black. I touch it up every time I wash the truck. I was just hoping for something else.

Drop it. I don't notice mine hanging down that much hardly at all anymore since I dropped it.

I found out that the bushings are all the same size.
