Hey sounds great, I have 1 more week of layoff.. I tried to get this PLUMBER I know to hire me for cash, but he never got back with me:waah:
Anyway, it was fun. The new front driveshaft put up with the BBC for now. Call me if you're heading out to the polebarn..

Re: Michigan Sand Dunes (pics)
 

I'll let you know when I'm going to actually do something.

Know anyone who has a pair of stock rear leaf springs?

Re: Michigan Sand Dunes (pics)
 

I gave mine to my buddy's Grandpa about 4 years ago... Their probably laying in the same spot..

By the way, your supposed to be raising the Blazer higher:metal:, not back to stock...

Re: Michigan Sand Dunes (pics)
 

True, but I have my DIY4X shackle flip, so I can run my stock springs and still have about 4" or so.

Re: Michigan Sand Dunes (pics)
 

Check em first, you might need to re-center your axle in the wheelwell after the shackle flip. ;)

Re: Michigan Sand Dunes (pics)
 

Full Hijack on: Hey Kurt, what is the best way to move the axle?

Re: Michigan Sand Dunes (pics)
 

Small amount = Zero rates
More = new spring packs or move the centering pin

Re: Michigan Sand Dunes (pics)
 

I'm an idiot...I bought a pair of zero rates with my shackle flip. :crazy:

Some days I wonder how I can breath without concentrating on it. :lol:

Thanks dude!

Re: Michigan Sand Dunes (pics)
 

Man, there's home again! I grew up in Ludington, just north of there. Many a beautiful summer day spent on those dunes......:metal:

Beautiful Jimmy too, thanks for the pics!!

Re: Michigan Sand Dunes (pics)
 

MAN I LOVE THE DUNES!

Re: Michigan Sand Dunes (pics)
 

I was there the 4th of July weekend & there was at least 15 69-72 Blazers in the dunes.

Re: Michigan Sand Dunes (pics)
 

and where are the pix ^ ?

Re: Michigan Sand Dunes (pics)
 

Ya, the one time I didn't have my camera. sorry

Re: Michigan Sand Dunes (pics)
 

Orange, where you at in west Mi? I live in Marion, about 20 miles south of Cadillac. Planning a trip over to the dunes in a week or so. Gonna try and go midweek or so to avoid traffic, but if I could see that many first gens on a weekend, it would be worth the hassle! Don't have my K5 running, but going with my cuz in his superduty F250 with friends v-buggy in tow. I think it's time for a day or two off midweek!

Re: Michigan Sand Dunes (pics)
 

We are still going up on Aug 5 - Aug 9.
Just broke in the 383 yesterday...she's alive!:metal:
Hope the 15 Blazers are back...that would be awesome!
I usually see a couple every year.
This was my favorite from last year...

I live a few miles south of Grand Rapids. I have a lot of family in the McBain area which isn't to far from you. I'm going back to Silver this weekend so hopefull I can get some pics of a few Blazers.

Re: Michigan Sand Dunes (pics)
 

That black K5 is very drool-worthy!

Re: Michigan Sand Dunes (pics)
 

Cool Orange, it's a small world . Still trying to set up time to get over there. Way too much work and not enough play! My cuz seems to have plenty of time off and always ready to go, so I just have to get it together and DO IT!

Re: Michigan Sand Dunes (pics)
 

Was up there over Aug 5-9 then. Only 2-3 other Blazers up there while I was up there. Got to take mine up with the fresh 383 in it. Still have some tuning to do, but still had a good time. Here are a few pics of my "dune buggy"

Re: Michigan Sand Dunes (pics)
