Just bought 87k5 now what

[bamf]

Alright as some of u may know i just bought a 87 k5 blazer. I asked a few ? about the shocks. Well finally got all the shocks out of the truck now.

So now i need to find a good set to buy ? anyways my question is what else should i do to my truck? only reason i got shocks was well the old ones where screwed up.

Just want to know what else i need?

I thought about putting in new plugs and wires. ? any ideas what else i should do

I want this to be able to go off road and also be able to take me to work every day

what is already done to the truck? stock?

 

[bamf]

well the truck has 35 in tires and a 4 in lift.


thats about it ^^

paid 3k for it and after i put new shocks and new brakes it will be up to around 4.5k

The brakes it has on it now are unable to stop the big tires so i have to go and change everything in the brakes

you have a picture of this truck? 4,500 for a 4" lift on an otherwise stock blazer seems to way too much. unless it's super clean, minimal rust? Pics!

 

[bamf]

i paid 3k for the truck and after i put in new shocks and new brakes it will be about 1.4k in to it so thats around 4.5 k
