My Newest Ebay Purchase

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Chevy-ZR2-GMC-exterior-tire-jimmy-wheel-carrier-Blazer_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33651QQitemZ7998 835320QQrdZ1

Any installation advice would be appreciated, but it seems more or less straightforward.

I bought this 97 4x4 for $2K a couple months ago and my goal is to make it a modified '05 ZR2 clone...

(that's my 05 Specialized Hardrock Comp Disc in front of my Blazer)

Re: My Newest Ebay Purchase

no offense meant, but you are in for a lot more work than you think......

There are internal brakets on the inside of the quater panel, not that simple to get in there to add your own. If you don't reinforce the panel, it will not hold and dent to hell...... Same thing goes for the tail gate part, but that will be alittle easier to get to....... Just remember, brackets are needed, just don't think you are going to drill some holes and put a bolt through with a nut on the end as that won't cut it...... good luck



also, if you truly expect to made it a zr2 clone using zr2 parts, again, good luck. Rear ends are different, shocks and mouting points are different. If you just want the apearance, put a lift on it and some revo tires and call it good..................
