First. SWEET!!! Second, did you have to do anything with the back spacing on those C6 rims to get them to work on the 4x4. I assume thats what it is, and where did you get the roll pan from? And who much was it, AND... how much was the damage on the rims/tires?

Also, what about that drop? What, where, how much for parts..

Third. SWEEET! Boost? JEEBUS. Going to do that on the 4.3? If so, make a freaking photo journal of that!

Fourth. SWEEET!

Fifth. Im a noob. So be nice.

I have the same rig. Just not as cool.

Re: 1st gen Blazers; post pics here

Here is mine. I've done a 4" drop front/rear, stereo and some parts buying/storing. Got C5 brake conversion kit on the shelf, just need calipers and rotors (and wheels to clear the 13" brakes). LS1 rear disks should be on the way as of today. Rear sway bar needs to be put on. Project plan is V8 and then some. For now I'm stuck with 4.3


(why when I post pics they always thumbnails?)

lol, too bad I don't got those Zq8's though. I'm just trying to get most of the mantenance done for now. Don't know what I'm planning with it, I guess suspension wise, I'm going with 26's all round, keep the 5 gal (came with it), and sell off the 450 and get the dual 480's.

The fronts bagged already (strangely it really is like yours, lol). I'm taking out the 2b6's though and keeping them for spares. I have enough 3/4" air line to do up the whole set-up so I'm going to use the rest on it. 1/2" fills and 3/8" dumps w/silencers. As a temp rear set-up I'm gonna do AOL, nothing fancy till I get the funds I need. Audio... it's getting new speakers and still debating about a sub or whatnot.
I'm canging out the mirrors once I get the other door open. Going with the boxy look.

I have a build thread on it, this thing is going to take me a long while.

looks tight man, could you possibly take a pictures of your rear window from the inside. I aks cause mine is all jiggly and squeeks too damn much. I took a look at it and it looks like it's not closing all the way or is crooked or something. Yours looks like it's snug and flush with the tailgate.

do you think it has something to do with the window shocks? Mine are completely shot (don't even hold up the window at all. When I got it, the tailgate panel was missing too. Would I need to tighten the hold the latch has on te window? Sorry but I'm trying to see wat I can do to stop the squeeking.

well at least your farther than I am. I'm pretty much trying hard to concentrate on the maintenance right now. Then slowly but surely I'll be able to start the main build.

buy a plate box from suicide 2 or 3 inch deep one. use a sharpie and trace the box where you want it and use a cut off wheel, nibblers, or sawzall.

then place the box in there, weld and use a cut off wheel to trim the box down. then throw some filler on it and smooth it out and bam ur good to go... but ill tell you this a angled plate is illegal.

and the roll pan i got from grant cost me 60 bucks shipped to my door. and the box was like 20ish. and if u have a mig welder it will do just spot weld it from top left to bottom right..
