new guy

I bought a 99 dr/4wd blazer for a daily and looking to make it not as ugly. I guess im an idiot and cant search properly because im having terrible luck finding info about pulling my luggage rack and spare tire assembly.

Ill eventually drop it a bit, tint it and debadge once it warms up.

Re: new guy

Re: new guy

don't put a pan on a stock 4wd

The roof rack is easy to take off. It's just 8 torx scews bolting it to the roof. You get to them from the outside top of the roof.

Re: new guy

a blazer 'roll pan' is called a 'step shaver' so search for that

Re: new guy

I still don't under stand why they call it a stepshaver kit, I mean the ones for the stepsides make sense, but what step are you shaving on a Blazer?

Re: new guy

Yeah, but they aren't steps and if the bumper is a step bumper then shouldn't rollpans be called one piece step shavers

Re: new guy

i think it is a stupid name...all bumpers are steps so all roll pans should be called stepshavers


the only ones that should have that name are stepside beds but everyone calls them stepshavers for the blazer

Re: new guy

No you can drop a 4wd, but just because you can doesn't mean you should.

You need blocks for the rear like a 2wd and torsion keys up front instead of lowering springs.

SOme 4wd guys think 4wd's should be lifted, but me, i think EVERYTHING should be dropped (even motorcycles, lol)

Thanks! Im just trying to figure out if I CAN do it, thats all. I got a hell of a deal (2500) on the blazer, but if its going to be my daily driver, id like ot make it look a little better. I wanted to do a rollpan (stepshaver?) anyhow since the back end is already ugly and since I got rearended, I figured i can do it for free now, but havent found much for the 99 year as far as kits so I didnt know.
