took her out for a nice little run

Last week was my spring break, and since i had a bunch of time to spend at home i actually had a chance to get the blazer dirty for the first time since the overhaul. It is still 2wd, but i was going through mud holes that my brother needed 4wd in, lol.. we also went on some mild trails where 4wd wasnt needed... it was nice to actually get her out in the wild and splash through the mud. My roommate and another friend of mine enjoyed the crap out of the mud holes. All in all it was a blast, the only downer was spending 15 bucks at the car wash to make sure there was none of the mud left on the truck... anyways here are a couple pics of the after math.. not the greatest quality but they are from my buddies cell.

my brothers truck after some time in the puddles, haha

Ah, finally got her dirty, lol

How are those johnny joints in the shackle flip??

Flex good, any bad body roll?

I havent had a chance to really test the flexing too much, but from what little testing i did do, they seem to allow a lot of articulation. That said, the body roll was something that i was able to get used to and was definitely something that i needed to take note on. When i first took the truck out, it blew my mind how bad it was because i had never experienced something like that. then i put on some better shocks in the rear and the body roll seemed to be less dramatic. I'm use to it now, and i think changing the shocks helped a whole bunch as well.
