New to blazers

Hey guys,venturing out of the 67-72 area to look around. My dad has a 93 blazer 4dr with a 4.3, where do you guys go for lowering it? And also where do you guys go for new front end parts? I want to kinda give it a typhoon look. Thanks in advance

Typhoons look... does that mean leather interior, front buckets, floor shifter plus real Typhoon cladding(expensive$$$!) and wheels?

Re: New to blazers

In the late 80s mid 90s there were constant suppliers of body molding kits and such but most of them died away, there still ways to make them custom looking and there many ways to lower, 4x4 people would loosen torsion bars and 2wd would get springs, drop spindles, or both. People sometimes use bravada molding on there s10s and it acually looks pretty good. if id still had mine i know thats one thing i would have done

Re: New to blazers

Rat, not really that far, just the chrome plastic on the front is all peeling and looks horrible, I didn't know if you blazer guys had a goto place or if lmc is the way to go. And 67shorty I know how to drop it I just didn't know if there was a goto place for drop kits, and ill have to look at bravada stuff thanks for the tip

Re: New to blazers

You could go with belltec, eibach, mgathy( I know I spelled it wrong) or you could go with cheaper ones. Depends on what your planning to do, just lower or lower and perform.

Re: New to blazers

not sure if you are on facebook, but his website here is a bit slow on anything other than an old fullsize.

below are 4 great sites for info..

i was going to go the typhoon route on mine as well, but changed my mind for a syclone for the daughter instead. but typhoon kits are around 500-1000 for all the pieces.
