new rig

Postby Dale » Sat Dec 11, 2010 3:00 pm

my brother picked this blazer up in walla walla yesterday. it was owned by the owner of a walla walla transmission outfit. seems pretty well built we took it out for a test run and was amazed at what it would do. if anyone has anything I could pass on to him from experience it would be appreciated. :lol:

he is close friends with the owner of steves tire factory, and was told a full cage, paint, rims, front driveline, and tune up were in the near future. should turn out pretty good.

That's a nice looking Blazer! If it were mine, I'd trim the fenders (tastefully), lower it about 4", set the bumpstops accordingly, install that cage, and wheel the wee out of it!!
Yep, I've wheeled one of those, too...

The EB is good, really good! It's not a hardcore wheeler by any stretch, no lockers, chromo shafts, body protection, or anything like that. Just a relatively clean old rig that is fun to get out in. I've got a lot of hours into the restomod, and at this point I'm on the fence about what direction to take with it...

Only thing I've done is sell it :lol: Just couldn't live without a truck, so I sold the JK and picked up a little 1500HD Silverado crew cab.
Yep, I've wheeled one of those, too...
