I was checking HUSSEY's build for "Albert" and it looked like he did this. Can anyone foresee any issues with geometry and alignment? Thanks in advance!!
hussey did it (confirming, I remember it), and I did it on my 47 gmc, its a great brake upgrade. you will need to keep the truck rubber brake hoses because the blazer hoses have a different fitting at the hard line. it aint cheap though. the blazer drop spindles are twice as much as the truck and then you should figure to replace the bearings and calipers and rotors and pads. when you are done I think you will find you kept the caliper bolts and the bearing bolts.

there is no change to geometry or alignment. there is a great improvement in braking though!
