Southern blazer newbie - 3/23/2008 9:34:41 AM    99midnightLT Posts: 24 Joined: 3/23/2008 Status: offline Hello all, I just picked up a 99 4 door 2wd. This is the nicest vehicle I've owned so far, so I'd have to say I love it! I've got lots of plans for it, and hopefully it'll give me years of enjoyment. Any suggestions for popular upgrades/fixes for common problems? Input is welcome and appreciated. Pics will be here soon! Thanks for reading. :) -Kenny < Message edited by 99midnightLT -- 3/23/2008 9:40:53 AM > Post #: 1

Like Belltech 2-3 drop kit or doing a whole Air ride  set up. Also AEM or K&N instake system and doing a custom Magna flow or Flowmaster cat back exhaust. < Message edited by nj4x4blaze -- 3/23/2008 9:51:53 AM > _____________________________ Dave- 01 blazer 4x4, 6" Superlift Kit,15x8 on 32''s and 20"x9" on 33''s,New Jersey Chapter www.subsonickustomz.com NJ,MI,IN,WI,IL,CO,MN,AZ,NC, (in reply to 99midnightLT) Post #: 3

RE: Southern blazer newbie - 3/24/2008 4:36:38 PM    99midnightLT Posts: 24 Joined: 3/23/2008 Status: offline Well, as far as plans go, I LOVE the look of Prerunner trucks, but everything I've found as far as lifts only works up to 97 blazers... I won't really be doing any heavy off-roading (wish there were desert flats in South Mississippi [sigh] ) but just some odds and ends where an extra 2 inches or so would be nice, like hopping a curb or driving through a shallow ditch every once and again. I saw some 30x10.50s on a truck here and liked the looks of them, so I'll probably look into some tires that'll suit my purposes in that range. I might go smaller than that, but I liked the agressive width of the grips that I found. :D I found a full stainless 2.5" light bar for the front on eBay for a decent price, so I'll probably be picking up one of those as well. Thanks for all the responses, and I'll definitely be enjoying my stay. (in reply to thegr81) Post #: 9
