Well for those who might be wondering these pics I've been posting are from the past few months, I got some more parts in so i can finish up the front,and still need to run the air system and start on the rear suspension.
Slow process but its coming along

Bad ass. Not a bad idea. Been wanting a 2wd Blazer- but they are hard to find around here. And if you plan the lay it out- like you did...you are buying everything anyway. i may start looking at 4x's to convert.

Nice work.

Re: intro and project...K5 2X

i am tuning in here looking for pointers and ideas on the blazer, any shot of the modifications to the rear floor ? do you still have room for the rear seat ?

Re: intro and project...K5 2X
 

Wow I just was in Vegas at sema drooling over your truck.....
The rear seat in the blazer will be modified... narrowed alittle and I'am going to lower the brackets
