It was supposedly a 6" Lift and it had 35x12.50" Maxxis Bighorns. It Come with rough country springs and STOCK steering parts lol and the back looked as if it were sagging when i got it so i have also tried to fix that issue

Put in the new rear u-joint on Sunday and will be pulling the heads tomorrow.

Water coming out the exhaust (large amounts, not just condensation) means probably a new cat and O2 sensor as well as the muffler and tailpipe.

I was going to pull the TBI and 700R4 to put in the '72 but the wife convinced me (didn't have to try very hard) that I should just get it back into shape and drive it.

So it will be a work/mild trail truck.

Here's my '91 with 4 inches, 3/4 ton axles, and some wore out baja claws. It has new 35 inch MTZ's on it now. The truck has 117K original miles and has been meticulously maintained. The interior looks as good as the exterior! I need new pics!

It is a 8" skyjackerlift softride all spring no blocks. Also had a 3" body lift that is not on it now, but will have to go back on or make some suspension changes to keep the tire from hitting those new fenders. The wheels are weld super singles 16.5" x 14" with 39" x 18 MT Baja's for now.

Four wheel steer is very intriguing to me and I'm not trying to critique the truck, but I have an honest question. If you have a front diff in the rear of your truck so as to have rear steer, wouldn't it screw up the caster to angle the pinion up like that?? Or can you keep stock caster angle and just rotate the diff on the axle tubes??

PS, nice truck!

good question, I am not sure, your idea of rotating the diff seem's logical. I alway's wounder'd how the ring and pinion would hold up turn'n in a revers rotation as much as that would,I would think the best solution would be to put them axle tube's in rear diff house'n. in my brother-n-law's case it wont get driven very much, he's more of a collector ! I should do a separate post on some of the cool/odd vehicle's he has.

Probably because I tried to reply without re posting all your pics.. I dont know why you can reply to some picture messages without the pics attaching to the reply, and then sometimes they are stuck in there with the quote. When that happens, I just backspace over the inserted image text to get just the quote by itself.. Is there a better way to do this???:hmm: Me no computer smart..:ben:

So many really nice Blazers on this site, I almost feel ashamed to show my stock beater.

Just picked this up from SC (home state) while I was visiting mom's. After replacing the front bumper and grill I loaded it up and headed back to PA.

The first thing to go were the side steps and added spacer's to bring the rear tires out even with the fronts. Has some minor body dings but runs great with 168000 miles on it, used no oil on the drive back.

I found a donor 3/4 ton Burb with a 14b rear and dana front axle but I'll have to check closer be for I decide on the swap. Maybe a 4" lift and 35's in the near future. So many plans, so little money.....lol

Stay tuned.......
