Thorbecke Bros. tubular a-arms installed (with pics)

I finally got the blazer off the jackstands and back on the ground.
I got a set of the new Thorbecke Bros. tubular a-arms for bags for the old blazer. This started out as a quick bag job, since I was already static dropped at a 5.5"/6" drop.

Well, it turned into alot more. I also purchased the new AirPod from AirRide Technologies. This thing is perfect for blazers. Super easy to install. (thanks to Tony@AirRide Tech for your help)
I installed the AirPod controller in the console, where the ashtray goes. It fit perfect with a little dremel tool work. (I had previously swapped this console out for the '73-up "cupholder console,... so I dug out the original "seat belt console for this mod.)
While I was at it I installed a McGaughy's bolt in c-notch, and 2" lowering blocks in the rear.
I'm still not done. The spare tire mount needs to go back in, along with finishing up my "lowering of the bucket seats" idea, that member n2billet put in my head.
Hopefully tomorrow I can roll it out side for more pics. The a-arms easily lay out on the pavement, along with the trailing arm crossmember and exhaust.
Thanks to Jason at www.***************** and Tony at AirRide Technologies for all their help!
