yeah, little bit of rust but not to bad, Paid 500 for it 3 years ago, did a brake job then dove it for a year and a half before the engine it came with blew, by my calculations this is atleast the fourth engine, but that's another story.

4 inch lift with a 33 inch tire. I like the bumper guard too, but I want to strip the chrome and powdercoat it black. Then I will put a stock grill in too.
thanks for the complements.

oh sweet i just got a 4" spring kit and ordered 33"S today !! err, now i need to track down a grill/bumper guard like that! I'll post up some pics of it later in the day. Actually its more like 6" in the back, unlike blazer ass-sag, i'm going to have to see what i can do about bringing the nose up a bit!
