I'm falling in love with my blazer again!

Looking good man! Are the rear bedsides behind the rear wheels the same dimension (length) on Blazers and SWB trucks? I thought the Blazers were shorter there as well as in wheelbase but I don't see any cut lines on the rear of your new bedsides.

Thats some flowmasters thats been in our shop for a while so I saved a little cash and used them.Since it is a convertable I did'nt want the exhaust to be to loud so I put manifolds back on and 2" pipes.I think it sounds great.
