I'd watch your gearing. Im running 35's with the 700 and if i'm under 60 using the overdrive the tranny likes to hunt, But i'm still running 3.42's

whats been done
Okay so heres what I've done so far...
1. Had the 700 rebuilt
2. All new fluids
3. coverlay dash pad
4. 3" exhaust
5. 2-1/2" lift....thought it would be best for my plans
6. Painted all the white headliner gray to match.
7. Tomorrow I will have 33" Cooper STT...($400)
8. Ordering 15x10 black soft 8s from summit and going to run the ralley center caps and rings...cost to widen the stock ralleys $135 each...ouch
9. Restripped the factory red with silver.
New pic!

DUMP THOSE RUNNING BOARDS!!!! Other than that nice blazer

I think it all depends on the use judging from the work ya wanna do to it ie 4" lift its probably not goin to be a crazy wheelin machine right? so i would keep the 700 and make sure the gearing is corect for the tires and shazam!
edit: doh! i gotta start readin through the whole thread before i reply i just get so excited! sounds like a nice build hope you have regearing in those future plans!
The gears should be fine they are 3.73s
New pics Weld Roadhawks and 33" t/a's

Yeah...same as mine.Since mine close good I used a heat gun to loosen the mounding and raised it on the door.
The door isn't sagging the previous owner put the molding on a little too low...it is 22 years old

If it bugs you a heat gun will loosen it so you can reapply it.
