Picked up an 85 blazer and am stripping it out to rebuild it.

Have a 3" (maybe 2.5") tube front bumper custom made. probably 50lbs or so.

Have front fenders, grilll, hood, from something older then 80. all in very good condition, very little rust.

have front and rear seats out of 85 blazer, decent shape but not great. minor rust, cloth is worn and weather beaten but still functional. I own a professional steam cleaner so they can be cleaned prior to you picking them up. *GONE*

various tires. Have 2 33x12.5x15's, and 2 35x12.5x15's. None of these tires are the same brand but all have 80% more tread or better. Will give tires to whoever wants them. All held air last I checked but they have been sitting for awhile now.

Have 4 chrome wheels, make unknown, size 12.5x15.

Tailgate, with glass. don't know if it works, stripped it out to save weight. Want to trade for a tailgate from a truck or get instructions on how to make a tube gate that I can skin.

Fiberglass removable hard top. Pretty good shape cept the drivers side glass is busted out. Probably needs new seals.

Will either trade for parts or info to aquire stuff I need cheap. Not looking to make money on this just get em out of my yard. I can't afford to ship anything heavy to you.

I have a rear end with no gears so I either need stock gears or a new rear end, (10 Bolt)
Also looking for a soft top to add on after I build a cage.
Need aftermarket front seats.
Need tubing to build a cage

Willing to come and drop stuff off to you if you have something worth driving to get. I'll go as far away as 100 miles or so from Zip 85204

I can send you pictures of any of this just send me an email requesting what you want pics of at [email protected] and i'll get back as soon as I can.

I might be interested in the front clip, I don't have much for blazer parts left over (I tend to get rid of crap as I go) except for a 3.08 open 12bolt, and a couple odds and ends. Most of my truck got thrown in the trash, or hacked up and strapped back on. As far as that 4" lift in the back, skip the springs, just cut out the bottom of the shackle mount and do a shackle flip (quick and easy job with a plasma, or a big angle grinder+cutoff)
 
you can have the front clip if you'll pick it up and show me what you mean by shackle flip. i picked up this blazer to learn stuff... I have a torch, and a big angle grinder, no plasma cutter....
 
might be interested in the tube bumper how much do you want for it?
pics to [email protected]

i have a complete rear 10b that i dont need anymore. completely stock, 3.73 gears.

let me know
 
what do you want for the rear end? I'd rather trade parts then sell em. I'm at work right now I'll send some pics of the bumper when I get home tonight.
 
im not looking to get alot for it. if the bumper is what im looking for is trade the axle for it. i think there was a guy from AZ thats around where i live right now, maybe he could bring it to you. shipping would be really expensive.

let me know
 
As far as what a shackle flip is, here's some pictures...

Stock shackle hanger with a hole cut in it...

put the shackle in from the bottom rather than the top...

This will give you the 4" of lift you lose by taking out the blocks. Turns the pinion up significantly, either use tapered shims to correct, or run a CV rear shaft (the option I chose). Flexes better than stock, rides better than blocks, doesn't axle wrap, lots of benefits.

If I can have the front clip, about where is it at, and is it assembled so its one piece in the back of a truck, or is it all taken apart?
 
It's all one piece still has the radiator sitting in it.. the hood is taken off but the springs and everything are sitting. Email me [email protected] and i'll send you a few pics of it. they're not the greatest quality but it shows everything.
 
are the top radiator support bolt holes still good?? wheres the rust?? batter tray??? what about the 35/15's, still got those??
 
Original radiator is still in place on the front clip. Don't know condition of holes. Minor rust all over as you can see from the picture. None of the rust looks as though it is more then just surface rust. The wheels are still available which are 15x12.5's and I have 1 tire left which is a 33x15x12.5 - it has more then 80% tread left.
 
You still have some interior parts? I might be interested in the door panels and the rear interior panels. If so let me know if they are power and how much you want for them.

Thanks,

Justin
 
My neighbor needs a good hard top. where are you at.. What about the body and frame?
 
I have a couple of truck tailgates(1 GMC, 1 Chevy) to trade for the blazer tailgate. I would be interested in one of the 35's if you still have one.
