here she is with a t-bar crank and shackles, i got about 2" on the dot from the tbar crank.


hopefully my rims will be here shortly so my dad can bring them into work, mount them, and hopefully do an alignment even tho its his day off.

Are thoses 2 inch lift shackles? I'm about to order some and i'm trying to figure out what size to get so i can hopefully fit 32's and if it will be close to level with a 1.5 inch t-bar crank.

O man thats sick! ya it definately looks like you got some trimming in your future for those front fenders, but its worth it. i like the wheels. i would get a set if i wasnt in COLLEGE. ya im broke. ive been living off of ramen noodles for the last like 3 months. anyway, my dad owns 2 body shops so im gonna paint my stock wheels black i think, get some $15 autozone shackles and modify them to get some more strength, t-bar crank, and when i get the money, do a nice set of 30's. i do want the black wheel look though i like that. I cant beleive you got that thing for $750! how many miles you got?

Keep the miles rollin! you know what would look real good on there? 5% tint all the way around. Keep the black sceme goin. Spray some rust converter, and then some undercoat on the frame too. If you want to tint it let me know and i can type you up some tips, that is if ya dont know how to do it already, you seem to be pretty handy. Otherwise, i cant wait to see this thing come together. It looks much better with just the lift and shoes! Now ya need some mud on there!

thanks guys, we have to put him to sleep today, its blown up his splein to a massive size and its all in his lymphnotes SP?
change of plans though, dad figured its a good idea to trim to try and get the dog off our minds for alittle bit.

Sorry to hear about the dog.  You definitely need to do something to get your mind off of it and what better than cutting/beating on your blazer to fit those big meats!

Sorry about your dog. I know its rough to loose something so close to you. I had my dog die two 4th of July's ago, it sucked. But yeah beating on the blazer/cutting/trimming should get your mind off of the dog a little.

well i have the pics and i pm'd swartlkk about the thumbnail thing but he hasnt gotten back to me, hopefully when he sees these he can make them thumbnails for me.

all trimmed up guys.



this was really the only trimming i had to do, the back cleared fine except when i did the body lift, i never realized it now but the body is slightly crooked, so i had to just cut a tiny tiny edge off the back left fender in the rear.
