Well... Going backwards again. Decided to put coilovers on the front too. Might as well do it now right?

More bracket work.. The only thing that I'm not sure of is if i'll have enough travel.

Well… It wasn’t too easy. I knew Ride Tech made something like this for 72 C10 so I found out what coil over they used. I wanted to use a QA1 so I found the closest thing (QA1-US304).

Looks great. I love blazers and the coil over set up is just bad ass.

Re: Naught's 82 2wd K5 Blazer
I didn’t want my battery under the hood and I didn’t want to put it inside my Blazer either. Looks like I found just the place. I mounted it under the passenger door on the side of the frame. With a few modifications to the body braces I was able to keep it above the bottom of the frame like everything else.

Things slowed down during and after the bad floods we experienced down here in south Louisiana. We have started back now and will try to post a little more now. Here are some pics of us mini tubing.
