Re: OCD Blazer
I cant find the pics of the frame while I was working on it [it was 12 years ago]but the original plan was to make it low as possible as cheap as possible,so I Zd the front 5" with dropped spindles and bags,in the rear I used the factory trailing arms but made a new front mount so the arms ran inside and parallel with the frame and built a watts link to keep it inline and narrowed the rear end.
when I was doing the work I just wanted it to be strong and didn't take a lot of time grinding and cleaning up welds much I was going to rustoleum and let it go.But a friend of mine[Tony from Advanced Custom Coatings] offered to sand blast the frame so he could get in the tight spots before I painted it but when I went to pick it up he had powdercoated it and my trailing arms and wouldnt let me pay him [asshole] so since he was in the giving mood I gave him everything else I had.If I knew in advance everything was going to be powdercoated I would have spent more time with a grinder
