Can I have a build thread too?

wanna sell those front axles outta that 44 lmao, im in need. as far as your blazer it looks damn good, nice and high.
 
well I still have to get the rear shaft lengthened. Im going to take it probably tomorrow. As for the front im just going to drive the truck to the driveshaft shop and let them look at it to figure something out. Then all there is to do is brakes and steering. well shocks too but im going to drive it without them for a few days because its been so long since ive been behind the wheel. :haha:
So hopefully by next week ill be back in it. fingers crossed. :o
 
i sure as hell hope so! i wanna see this rig in person

also are you keepin that sway bar? hope not.
 
Yeah this summer Me and some people are planning a get together to do some muddin around here. You are welcome to come along. The more the merrier :D .
 
sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet

can you see my excitement? thanks for the offer. i have a rear shaft with a 1350 axle joint and for a 208... how long do you need yours? you could probably swap out tranny yokes. ??
 
Are you going to go with a CV shaft on the rear or did you rotate the pinion angle on the axle?

I bet with that much lift a standard U-Joint setup will vibrate like crazy. I know mine vibrates a little and I only have 7 inches of lift in the rear.
 
I rotated the pinion. (it was actually a good thing that the perches had been chopped off) and got my driveshaft made by a local shop. ill see how it does then if it vibes too bad Ill go to CV.

All I have left is the brakes now. and im having a problem with the starting system.. im not sure if its the switch or the solenoid. or well the wiring to either. I have to finish the brakes and get it running tomorrow. then take it for a ride.
