I gotta get this thing going.

Good work!
I had intentions of doing this when I took it home from buying it, I just wanted to drive it for a while before I tore it apart The blazer was pretty nice to begin with and all it really needed was some block sanding on the bed sides and it would have been fine but after finding the bondo and the frame being off I figured I would go all out on it. If I would have started on the front of the frame first I would (we) have just built a whole 2x4" chassis for it but since I already had the step-notch in we went ahead with the 2x6" graft in the front. The new front end will help a lot with header clearence, and the accessories on the LQ9 since the a/c compressor would have been impossible to use with the factory frame rails. Get your butt started on yours already Good luck with yours and I hope things go better than what I have been dealing with
