78 2wd Blazer - LS Swap and more..

[phillipm]

It's been a while, however I thought I'd post a couple pictures of the Blazer. We ended up moving to a Ridetech coil spring and a CPP modular spindle on the truck as well as installed some Slosh Tubz to make more room (gained almost 3" of clearance with those). I can say with the Ridetech spring the car came up about an inch vs the same drop McGauphy's spring and it rides much better because of that and now we've got a total of 5" of clearance from the top of the tire to the fender well making it much more enjoyable on uneven roads. We also installed some American Racing wheels and wider tires to compliment the new Baer 14" brakes up front and 13" in the rear. Here's a few photos of how she sits now as well as a shot from the most recent GoodGuys Hall of Fame Tour it was on. To date the truck has almost 50,000 miles on it since we've finished it and we've enjoyed everyone of them! (well, almost every one)
