[Project] UP? or down¿

Wicked Mayhem · 11-13-2007, 12:23 AM

Well, instead of posting little threads here and there of things I'm doing, i will start a thread. Not a whole lot will be happening in here, but every now and then ill update it. Currently I'm building a sub box for it. I got all the wood cut for it, just need to put it together. I will probably do that tomorrow. I've ordered my RCA cables, grommets, and connectors. They should be here Thursday, so this weekend i should have a system, again.

As for a little background on the blazer, I bought it intending to use it as a daily. Driving it stock while I did more work to the 1st gen. Then my dad decided he wanted the garage for his mustang so that left me no where to work on the truck, so i sold the 1st gen. Its in good hands, all bagged now. First i did a 5/6 drop on 20's on the blazer. I never had a lifted vehicle before, and I wanted one so i lifted the blazer 5". 2" body lift and 3" suspension on 32x11.50's.

I got a new 4x4 valance for it today, hopefully black will look fine on there.

Here's some pictures of it.

How i bought it:

5/6 on 20's:

Lifted:

A few miscellaneous pictures:

Heres what I'm working on now, I cleaned our shed out so i could work in there. It was full of so much stuff, we couldn't even walk in.

How do you think the black valance will look on the blazer?

i think i liked it better lowered on those rims, but lifted looks good too, what are ur plans for the speaker box?? and did u figure out wear u were putting the spare tire?

the box is going to sit above the spare tire and be a little above the back seat. i should have pics of it in the truck today or tomorrow to show ya what im talkin about.

teamnaptime · 11-13-2007, 10:59 AM

sweet. i think the valance should look good... i bet it'll look better on the blazer than it does layin on the hood of the jeep

lifted trucks are not my thing at all, so personally i liked the look better on the 20's and lowered.... but. it does have a nice look to it on this big tires, and its your truck

one thing for sure though, that mud boggin looks awesome as hell !!!

Twisted Minis · 11-13-2007, 12:56 PM

I like it better lifted. It looks too tall on the 20s. That Ranger is sick, it needs a SAS though..

Did you get your plasma? I've been using the shit outta mine.

Streamline · 11-13-2007, 01:07 PM

You should better Lifted.. The Lifted Blazer looks Sick and it makes fun to drive off Road..

the ranger is only 2wd. its his daily, he's not very mechanically inclined so itll stay the way it is prolly. and yeah i got my plasma cutter, ive used it some just testin it out seein how it works. seems to be pretty bad ass. havnt had any real jobs for it yet.

yeah they looked good on there, but i made 400 bux off them after having them for about 8 months

Wicked Mayhem · 11-13-2007, 08:00 PM

Got the valance on. i suck at using my camera so half the pics look like shit. im not used to having settings to change

Before:

During:

After:

Got the rest of the wood cut on my lunch break, now i just have to put the box together, seal it, then it will be ready. i am going to see how it sounds in the truck then after a little while i get it carpeted to match the interior.

Wicked Mayhem · 11-13-2007, 09:18 PM

apparently the wood isn't very square when you buy it. ill remember that next time.

ill smooth all the edges up n make it all flush, then route all the edges and the screw it together. right now its got little nails holding it all together. box is kinda heavy heh. not the most stylish box but i don't need anything special in there.

purevil115 · 11-13-2007, 09:32 PM

IO thought that valance was ok but after looking at it on, I think you need to have it painted for sure.

eh, i don't think it looks to bad. it kinda go's with the wheels and dark ass windows lol.. plus its already on, its not coming back off. don't know how long ill have the truck for anyways, so i don't want to sink a bunch more money into it.

EPlowrider · 11-13-2007, 09:46 PM

I really like it both ways man, I also always wondered why you had a lifted blazer with a billet grille, clear corners, and sport mirrors, lol, now I know. Truck is sick man.

im more into bags than lifted shit. thats what i am thinkin of sellin the blaze for. a newer s10 to bag, or a brand new ranger and slam it on 20's or a crew cab silverado.

o3whitey · 11-13-2007, 09:58 PM

i bought the factory tow hooks off a member on here. i never put them on.. probably wont. i don't plan on going mudding again in it. i just wanna put the system in it and drive it till i pay it off.

J.Cakes · 11-14-2007, 10:17 AM

bmxbang · 11-14-2007, 10:27 PM

ehh it seems like every one and there mom has a 2dr blazer now if it were me i would go with a ranger and bag it if you want a truck again i think rangers are cooler bagged just because you dont see them as much.

if i was to get a ranger itd be a brand new one, and the reason i would get a new one is for the warranty so itd get 4/5 drop with mustang wheels 18x8 and 18x10's, just keep it clean and drive it.

Wicked Mayhem · 11-18-2007, 03:49 AM

started puttin the system in finally. got the power wire, ground, and remote wire, and rca's ran. tomorrow i gotta hook up the ground and power and hopefully it works

now sure how well the ground will work where i got it, but ill find out tomorrow.

where i stopped for the night

JediSpam · 11-18-2007, 04:58 AM

nice box man

scootch · 11-18-2007, 01:47 PM

Wicked Mayhem · 11-18-2007, 08:11 PM

got it all in. sounds pretty good to me. need to clean up the wiring n stuff still. gonna wait till i get it carpeted or something before i finish tuckin the wires away. and im pretty sure i need bigger wire coming off my subs to the amp. its the little wire you see running towards the back of the box.
