If possible please share info on your suspension and drivetrain. Is the rear end stock and what BS and size are those wheels and tires? I want to get my 2wd closer to terra firma and i need to know what my options are.

On the back, I found that 92-94 full size blazer 4x4 springs will work on a 73-81 2wd blazer. I put the springs on the bottom of axle with 2" shackles. With 17x10 AR wheels and 275-60-17 BFG's. I have about 3.5" before it hits the frame; I am putting on air bags on top of the springs to help the ride.

On the front, it is belltech spindles and spring with a coil cut off. With 17x8.5 AR wheels and 255-50-17 BFG's. I will be putting air on the front too. I will post pic's as I do this.

Motor 406, with built 350 and 3000 stall, a 12 bolt with 410 gears..

If you need any help or pic's just let me know, I have put about ten years into this. But it has been a blast to drive!!!

Thanks,
Trav
