Cool seats man! Like the setup! I'm lookin for front seats on my project. Hope to find something like yours!
UPDATE: The build slowly begins
Well i've been really busy but have managed to get some work done on my blazer. I needed to replace the radiator since i bought it, so i replaced it and thought it would be a good time to put a cam in while I had the radiator out. I also had the headers sitting there that the guy i bought the k5 from gave me. Before it was over i ended up with vortec heads, performer rpm intake, installed the headman headers, new gm performance parts cam and lifters, double roller timing chain, dual flowmaster 40 series, and the radiator. Now my heater core leaks. Should have seen that coming. That was about 3-4 months ago. So about two weeks ago I picked up a set of one tons from a cucv from a co-worker of my brother. 14bff with detroit and the open dana 60 both with 4.56 gears, both for $1000. I ordered a ubolt and sping plate kit for the 60 from blue torch fab. Nice heavy spring plates and it comes with the studs for the housing. I got the axles installed, but am trying to figure out what to do about brake lines, front drive line, wether or not to move the the axles forward and back, and if I should go ahead and do a shackle flip and get rid of my blocks. I'm buying a set of h2 take offs from my dealership hopefully tomorow. I was torn between the h1 double beadlocks and the h2's for awhile until these came up and it was just to good of a deal to pass up. Well here's a pic of how she's sitting.
