I have painted rally's on my Blazer. I took the rings off as there is just too much covered to make it worthwhile painting them. Especially wiht the wide 3" rings

A while back my GF's dad built her an '81 swb and put painted steeliles with the little smoothies or moon caps or whatever you call the little center hub caps.
He had some real small trim rings that couldn't have been more than 1" wide.
If I could find some of those that would mount to the rally's I would do that.

Re: 90 burb (( daily dragger))

update friday I'm ordering some sd axle mounts the under and behind ones but I'm going to run them facing forward and use the frame as my top mount welded on axle about where the shock mount is now then going to weld in a 4" pipe as a notch so I can add my bump stops and not lose any drop
drop is about done for now next step is some body work and shaving

Re: 90 burb (( daily dragger))

So I'm going to give in and buy a 10" notch for rear
going to make it all work with only raising the floor about 4"s
should give me about 5-6" of drop
suspension wise I going to keep the 2 longest springs and add a block if needed
will be able to keep 3rd row seat on bridge cover and not lose any foot room
seat will be raised about 2"s at most
notch and bridge will be the only parts above the stock floor just for clearance issues
