dually blazer

Hello everyone new to the fourm.
I have a 87 cucv blazer with 6.2 full banks kit and getting bored with it. Anyone have some pic's of dually blazers they could share for inspration?
Any advice to share would be appreciated. I heard there is a difference
with the spring pads between the one ton and 3/4 rear .What vehicle would the 3/4t dually rear commonly be used in all I've been finding are 1 ton? Also would the power assist brakes on the cucv handle the dually brakes in the rear rember the cucv has that power steering pump assist . thanks sheepdog

Welcome to the site!

And that is a wild looking blazer, did they change it over in 87 or was that later in its life?

Re: dually blazer

There's one i a scrap yard here in Austin. Pretty weird looking. I think I even snapped a pic of it. I'll see if I can find it. It was upgraded to 3/4 or 1 ton and looked strange.

They never made a 3/4t dually. All dual wheel trucks are 1t or bigger. The frame, springs, hangers, etc are larger as well.

A tired warrior of the 1980s in a world of low profile tires, front wheel drive, and plastic bumpers, where people stay in their houses until snowplows move the offending substance from their paths, too helpless to travel without AAA and chains and salt, clearing their windows with longhandled brushes while gently stepping around in the snow trying to stay nice and dry.
