Within the next month it will be primer black and 14ff, 8 lug front, and gears will come right around then too. For now its just take it easy and have some fun. Then once money replenishes go back into it.
 
What kind of lift did you do? and anything else you might of done.
 
Put in 4" rear block, 2" add-a-leaf. Front- 6" springs, unsure of brand(bought from a friend in arkansas that parted out a blazer he had), braided stainless brake lines in front, replaced both front calipers cause bleeder valve broke in both of them. 2 new rotors(one was "slotted" from somene running it to metal on metal then replacing pads), rear bearing seals.

I might put in spacers between frame and tcase crossmember to help angles. Will start searching for a 14ff for the rear and save for gear front along with 8 lugging the front. And paint will happen within the next month cause that is a must with the rust.
 
Wow Justin! That can't be the same truck that went wheeling last week! Nice job man. I really think that it needs to get a little revenge on the tree trunk that incapacitated your truck last time out!
 
Its just begging to go back out there and crawl those rocks that i had to go around. I cant wait to wheel it.
 
Your bank account will never be at a comfortable level ever again - that Blazer is now your investment portfolio !

Looks GREAT !

What he said. QUICK

BTW.... I just happen to have the stuff for an 8 lug conversion in the pile-o-stuff in the garage!!! And a spare 14FF
 
Frame brace is comin up quick. Just gotta get a paycheck or two so i can see what that green stuff looks like again. lol
