LOL, thanks man but i am just an average joe like everyone else building out of my garage....just took me about 10 years to do this one ! LOL

That's funny I've been waiting that long for this blazer from an uncle of mine and had to move quick on it before he wanted it back.lol

It killed him when I took out the front axle and told him my plans.

Very nicely done. I'm looking at a '82 OG 2WD K5 this weekend ... I can only dream that if I get it it'll turn out 1/2 as well as yours. Great stance.
