Looks like a UFO, who needs headlights. Did you use tube lights or floods? All the Subterainians are over at 73-91 Sub/Truck. Yeah,I'm doing engine swap along with X-case rotate, over the Holiday break, but only get 12/16 thru 1/2 off.

Are you putting on rear steer?:confused:
 
I think that I will just take it out and see what breaks. Then I will know where the weak point is. :D Those rock lights look great. :waytogo:
 
I just bought a 91 burb. After tinkering on it for a couple of weeks, it runs. Bad transmission leak though. The front and rear air works. I haven't had a vehicle with A/C in a long time. It will stay stock and be my DD and tow vehicle for my Blazer.
The PO had spent alot of time and money trying to get it running and he finally gave up and sold it to me for $600.00. I spent less than a hundred bucks to fix it so now I have a sweet Burban 4x4 for a total of seven hundred dollars. :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

Two new exterior colors, Brilliant Blue and Slate Metallic were offered.

Blazers featured a steel half-cab with an integral roll bar built into the steel front compartment roof and lock pillar structures.

Sorry, just had to do it. K5 specs, but you get the idea.
 
well my project is on hold till spring, when that comes around i'm doing a body swap to a better body that is not rotted out, dana 60 will be going in as well as a sm465 /np205, will be running 4.56's and some 37's also going to put a 6 inch lift under her, and maybe get it painted all black :D

Your project is awsome. When you get through, the tire companies should come and ask you to test their tires cause the only thing that could stop the K36 is tread.:bow: A Burb with RSW will be extreme Kool, just like a Hook-n-ladder. Hey, maybe we should start naming these things in that convention, K36 is 4X, 1 ton, 06 body; mine is 1/2 ton so K16. An abbreviated configuration ID code.:confused:
 
Those lights...

I got 2 sets of prjectors on eBay and want ti relay them to the door pins so when you open the door at night, they come on for each door, but also override switch them so I can use them when I need them...
Looks great BTW!
Germany>?
