First I want to say,Thanks to all you guys that offer up the free information on here. I am looking forward to contributing where possible. I have owned pickups previously but this is my first Jimmy/Blazer. I just picked it up in Bakersfield CA. I happened to be working here and drove past it and decided to go ahead and get a new toy. I am adding a four inch lift it had brand new 35" tires on it and were rubbing.PO had installed a sbc 400 in it that only has about 5000 miles and runs good. The only thing is it has a two barrel on it? I am also in the process of changing all ball joints,resealing the rear end, shocks and new body mounts. It will have to stay in original paint (patina)for now until I can gather up more money but that will be fine.
Thanks for the add.
Tom
