Re: 70 Jimmy pics
I love it! That's how I want mine to look! Bring it on down here, we're a long way from winter and don't use salt for anything but seasoning anyways!

Re: 70 Jimmy pics
How many of you guys have you pipes cumming out under the middle of the bumper like that?!?!?!? Do you get fumes?!?!?!
i thought blazer pipes are 'sposed to exit on the corners... looks tight though! |

What a sweet Jimmy.I didn`t know you could still buy them new.
Quote:"i thought blazer pipes are 'sposed to exit on the corners..." ![]() `Sposed to?What`s up with that?They`re `sposed to have AM radios,skinny tires and hubcaps,single exhaust....need I say more?But,this isn`t a Blazer anyway. No offense,dude.Just finding it hard to find a flaw here.

I put 2 pieces of carpet under the left side but it still leans to the left I think most of these blazers and Jimmys have the same problem. Does anyone no a better way to fix it. |

No real reason for the lean other than the seat bracket or frame being bent. Floor should be flat/straight across where it bolts down. Maybe a different year bracket on one side somehow...? I like the carpet color you choose for the blue, nice contrast and match. |

I dont have any problems with fumes but then I never put the top on. I think the pipes came out behind the tire with just a single pipe. It took me over 5 years to get it done I was layed off twice in that 5 years that really slow me down not having any money. Last edited by Gary 70 Jimmy; 10-22-2005 at 09:48 PM. |
