Re: Introduction and 2wd Blazer in progress

Thanks guys! It has been a ton of work to get it to this point, but I have been having a lot of fun. It really is coming out nice. I will update again next week when the body gets back on. I took off the "upper" overloads and gave the rear leafs about 3" of additional free arch, but did a flip kit at the same time, so I think that means it will be 2" lower than it used to be. I am afraid that it is going to be too low as the rear end is going to be close to the bottom of the body as well as the axle to the frame. Idon't mind doiing a notch, but have no interest modifying the floor - both of which will hit at about the same time so I likely will not do either. We'll see how close it is once the body gets back on and I start to weight it down. I can make the final adjustment with a re-arch of the leaf springs. More to come...
