Nice rig, good to see you puttin' in some work on it. Keep up the good work!
You're way ahead of me now, I still have yet to complete the spring swaps and get a D60 then I can get the 14FF put in and finally put on bigger tires...

My boyfriend bought me a 90 chevy blazer from Emmettology101, and we did some much needed modifications to it. Here is what we accomplished, we made our own rear disk brakes, cross over steering, shackle flip, D60 and a 14 bff lincoln locked, 40 inch super swampers mounted on US wheels. And next we are trimming the wheel well, adding his old front bumper, making a new rear bumper, and adding a roll cage....she is turing out to be a beauty!!!!!!!!!!!!! And she is all MINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But I might be generous and let SOME ONE ride with...lol....

We installed 15" wheels with 4 1/8" bs..lots of grinding.

we dropped the gas tank and was trying to fix the leak and we ended up messing up the sending unit...
my dude picked up a gas tank from pearl road and it looks sharp...
