Pics Wanted: 2wd K5 Blazer Rear Setup
 
my brother got me an 81 2wd blazer on friday and i was wonder what people are running in the rear. my goal is to be laid out on some 22's and keep the back seat. i have yet to see the blazer in person but from the pic i have, it already has major suspension mods because it already lays hard. im just worried that i may have to redo the suspension because i have been coming across a lot of mono leafed, 2 linked and reverse linked trucks and that just won't cut it.

its gonna take major rework to "lay it out" on 22s and keep the back seat.

You'll be able to keep your back seat but you may lose some head room. What size tire are you planning to use.

i know. you want to be me. you guys would murder me if you found out how much was spent on it.

missing:
bags/brackets in front, comp, motor/motor mounts, trans,radiator, grill and who knows what else.
the good:tubbed for a 33+ inch tire and backseat is still there.
interior decent. all power. buckets out of something that match

THE BAD:
2 link with a very bad pinion angle
very small notch
all airlines cut. ??
i doesnt lay on anything. yet
it doesnt run, nor has it been registered in a long time.
apparent accident to right side.
i had to sell my soul to the devil to get this. i won't go into a lot of detail but i gave something up to get this.


the good:
og 2wd.
i have many extra air suspension parts.
it was a gift sorta.
