I have been searching around, and asking many questions, but today, I finally started the tear down process of my 2002 2 door, 2 wheel drive blazer. I bought it on Wednesday, and started on friday, gotta love it!:D The blazer will under-go a stockfloor bodydrop fit for a 20/22 combo from the fellas over at barely legal fabrication, the air management is still being pieced together, as well as everything else. Plans are to have it road worthy by next spring/early summer! I will post some pictures once I get the camera up an running. Its been a while, but I am glad to be back to the mini scene. I will be asking many questions, and requesting a lot of help, so bear with me!

haha, I should have enough money saved up to finish... I can post more pictures of the build, as I have them all as well. Ill do that later. New idea is surfacing, what if I painted the truck all black....

Ok, so the reasoning behind wanting to paint the truck black... I want to go with a theme, the blue and white kind of leaves me knowhere to go with a theme... I have always kind of been fascinated with horror themes ( no I am not satanic ). Hence wanting to paint the truck black, with a black interior, throw in some red, and some skulls. But, I dont know yet, we'll see.

The red/black and skulls is played out imo. Ive seen atleast severl truck at every show with that design. I like the idea of the blue and white. Maybe make the silver more of a gunmetal/ graphite color so your carpet, seatbelts, headliner, and other interior peices all match. then just add some nice clean accent pieces. just my .02

OK all, small update. Blazer will be getting dropped off by my father at barely legal next tuesday. After that, I dont see it being more than a couple weeks before I get it in my garage. I have decided NOT to go with the RIDEPro setup. I will however be purchasing the big red valves as I had good experience with them previously. Probably go with two 8 gallon tanks, each getting their own air zenith pump. (unless i decide to fork out the cash for EDC, not quite sure yet). Tentative plans call for some digital gauges to oversee PSI on all four corners. More audio is being purchased over time, TRU technology amplifiers, and some killer front stage speakers, we'll see. Just figured ID throw this mini update out there for those getting bored, no new pics yet, stay tuned for those. thanks all, have a wonderful day!

guess what? the body is at barely legal, its only a matter of time now until I get to bring it home and start the really fun stuff. Decided I am going to do the entire interior with a layer of deadener, not sure on the brand yet, cascade, raam, and Second skin are the choices... Other than that, I dont really have anything new! have a wonderful day, oh by the way, go spartans!!

go spartans!!
:gayflag: haha I had to. GO BLUE. But damn, can't wait to see some pics with the body on the frame. It's gonna be sick!


Speaking of pics...it's been a while. I know the whole issue with barely legal posting them, but anyone else able to get them and post them?
