I know you guys are prolly gonna rag on me but im changing my build plans again.Alright here is the lowdown,the 44and 14 bff w/513s out of the blazer are gonna go in the burb now.the 10 bolt 8 lug and the 14bsf i will sell (think i have a buyer),the blazer is going by by (got a guy who has centimental attachment to it and just want the frame and body),the crate 350 will be sold,the hydro 465/205 and hydro setup will be sold,and the bfg muds w/american eagle outlaw 2 wheels will be sold 2...the money from that stuff im gonna save a lil and but a stock chevy diesel 2wd or a older dodge cummins to tow with...the burb will sit like this when it is all said and done with...44 8lug 513's truetrac,14bff 513 detroit,bds 6 inch springs,6 inch diy4x shackles,350 tbi,400/208,4 inch ord shacle flip,zero rateand i need to get 2 more inches some were?? Also will be running 38x15x15 boggers ond 15x14 wheels (already have 2 wheels and tires)so it shold shape up to be a prrety bad arse sub...jusgt a whole lot simpler and less $$$ than build the blazer and getting the suburban were i want it to be to be a tow rig...anyway here are some pics all of yall have prolly seen them but here they are agian....

so whats yalls opinon...should i tske the good stuff out the blaze and finish making the burb a true tow rig...or put the suff in the burb and buy a stock truck as a tow rig...
 
Keep the burb as is for now, Build the K5 trail rig Quik!. And go to Paragon April 1st!
 
yeah right the sub needs gear to pull,the blazer needs the trans swap done,motor installed,suspention done and need 2 tires...im thinking more and more im just gonna build the burb...i need a pickup anyway,i will just buy a 3/4 pickup to pull with preferablly with diesel...
 
I might be buying another K5 just for Paragon. I want it done by April 1st if iI get it. I will not get to my house till the 17th. It will need a trans swap from a 700-465/205. The 205 needs to be twin sticked. Front axel needs to be swapped. Thinking I might need to swap the intake, and/or motor. Swap rear bumper. Convert a bell to hydro. And would like to paint it. It's do-able,(all without a garage).
 
its more do able for me and my tool seletion and cash flow to uild the burb with the parts i have now,and sell the rest and buy a truck with the left over any way parts are going up 4 sale now...

I just hope I can just change the oil by the 1st:rolleyes:
:haha: :haha: Not saying it will be done! But I hope! If not I got shotgun with Chas. If it does happen I don't think the oil will be changed.:D
 
my goal is the same as it has been all along...blazer bash in raush creek that is my goal...looks like i will be wheeling a burb now thats all...
