Re: 72 2wd blazer build

Hey bagged74,... Please post specs on the new wheels/tires with backspacing and tire sizes. Looks very good. Also is that a 67-70 or 71-72 rear axle. I love the big lip. Thanks, lolife99.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

20x8.5 w/5.5" BS 255/35/20
22x10 w/5" BS 285/30/22
the 67-70 axle is required for the 5" rear backspacing to work. its a tight fit, but it will work.

Re: 72 2wd blazer build

Your ride is very sweet! I was thinking about the same brake set up but I might try and get 13" front and 14 or 15" out back to keep the same ratio to the rims.
