That would be great if you could show more detail. I really like how the seats lift forward. I'm guessing the brackets are from a YJ? Sweet truck BTW.

RAB38 · 02-06-2007, 10:01 AM

I'll try to take some this weekend. the brackets are from a yj and both slide as well as flip forward

Dang, what a nice Blazer, working on a 69 restomod myself, if I can ask how much do you have in that awesome dash cluster? Are those phantom gauges?

RAB38 · 02-07-2007, 11:21 PM

The gauges are ultralites and I probably have about $500 in it. I did the dash about three years ago so i don't exactly remember. I took a stock dash and had my freind who worked at a elevator interior company use their cnc punch to punch the gauge holes out of polished stainless and mounted that to the stock dash.

Any luck on getting some more photos of the modded Jeep seat brackets? I am getting ready to bolt in some new seats and would like to use this idea, but I'd rather steal your work than reinvent the wheel

Thanks,
Herb

Chevyman63 · 03-19-2007, 10:10 PM

That is awesome. I really like the instrument panel.
Excellent job.

I couldn't count how many times I've went back and looked at it.

Southedisto · 03-20-2007, 06:42 AM

Sweet Blazer for sure. Could you post a few pics of the cage?

RAB38 · 03-26-2007, 01:46 PM

I'll try to get some more pic of the seat brackets and the cage. If you are looking for anything in particular let me know.

I live near La Plata, MD

How have I missed this?All I can say is,"That`s an aweful shiney booney buggy."

Nice work.Altough I`m sure you`ll not go out and tear it up,I like to see customs built that "could".Nice combo of form & function.

Yes I would like more info on th e seats too..

swyfor5 · 05-30-2007, 01:39 AM

Awesome ride, man! I am planning on swapping some custom seats/brackets into my 70 K5. Your's look amazing! Any more pic's of the seats and any specific info on what year/model would work good in a 1st. gen? Also your cage looks great, any info or detailed pic's on that? Thank's , and K5 to stay alive!

RAB38 · 05-30-2007, 07:38 AM

Here are two pictures I have of the seat. The seats are bestop brand for a jeep wrangler YJ, the brackest are for a jeep YJ as well. I had to drill the bottom rivets out and make my own mounting plate that bolts to the factory holes on the blazer. You can see where the top of the bracket near the seat still has the rivets and the bottom near the bottom plate I made is bolted. They work really well, both seats fold forward and they have ajustable sliders as well.

The cage is a S/W cage that I had to do extensive modification to in order to get the look I wanted. If I were to do it again I would have just bought the pipe and bent my own.
