Well I got my blazer fixed, and I ordered 4 more tabs for the front of the lower bars.

TuckaBlaze · 09-09-2008, 05:28 PM

i just had to order 4 more tabs, cuz the kit is supposed to work with the old leaf spring mounts and the front two mounts on the lower link bars. Work is kicking up again for 2 weeks and im gonna be setting up this 4 link!

Yes, Top and bottom. (post #190)

Bottom more so then the top. the top will not have the weight of the truck so i am gonna put a triangle gusset on the bottom of it to keep it clean looking. On the bottom, it will have the stress of the weight of the truch there. so i am gonna plate the outside of the rail with 1/4, and a triangle gusset.

I can draw a picture if you do not see what i am talking about.
