Re: New member with barn find
I got it running and tuned up, (click pic above) I have my old exhaust on it know just so I could run it. Also got the top and hatch installed. I removed the spring pads and shock mounts on the 14 bolt so I can set the pinion angle and new shock mounts. I want to throw the seats in and a spare tire before I weld the spring pads, Ounce the rear is done I can bleed the brakes and take it for a test ride.

Re: New member with barn find
Very nice!! Did you have the roll cage custom made?

Re: New member with barn find
Lookin really nice. I read you moved the engine x-member forward for the tranny swap. How much did you move it? Any clearance issues to the front differential with just the 2.5" lift?

Re: New member with barn find
Today was the day, I drove my Blazer into the garage three years ago and drove it out today. I think it was happy to sit in the sun. I still need to work on the steering but I was able to drive it up and down the driveway. I still have lots to do but I can see the light.

Thanks for the update. Who did you get your fuel and brake line sets from? What was the fit like?

Inline tube, very nice fit with only minor tweaking.

Re: New member with barn find
Truck looks great, nice choice again on the tire/wheel combo. Just noticed the top is different than most Blazers, how come it has bars on it. Is it an optional top. Looks interesting.
