My new toy!

[1985K10]

Well, Im selling my 85K10, and I picked this up for $2300. I have all
receipts from the PO, he had almost $10K invested. Its got a new tranny, still under warranty, all new ball joints, wheel bearings, brakes have been redone, new radiator, recent rear end, and the list goes on. The only thing left to do is replace the carpet(its faded) and fix a little rust, which i will do in the spring. Im also working on springs to replace the blocks in the back, and some 33-12.5's.

What are the specs on that Blazer?

[bigblock73]

That is a cool looking Blazer! Awesome.

The only things I don't really care for are the running boards, bug shield, and window deflectors. But of course, that is just my opinion.

Good score though, that is a great price.

That thing really needs its fenders filled with some bigger meats. But good luck with it man...Later Mike

Did you get TBI with that? Looks like a nice upgrade.

[1985K10]

Im trying to get bigger tires right now, I would prefer Cooper Discoverer STT's, 33".

It has a 350, TBI, runs nice, 4" lift(skyjacker), NP241 TC.

I'm thinking of ditching the bug shield and window deflectors, I LOVE the running boards cuz they keep my rockers dry and RUST FREE!

uhm, sidemarkers were the same 81-91, and were the same no matter K5-1/2-3/4-1 ton.

I think he meant fender emblems

Looks like a very nice truck! I'd get that butt lifted back up though, shes draggin her behind a bit :P

[MylilBowTie]

Yeah, I ment like the door bumper strip. Couldnt tell if it said 1500,2500,3500. I did look at the wheel and was guessin 1/2 but wanted to know for sure.

[1985K10]

Gettin new springs(to replaced stockers and blocks) that should lift her saggy rear right?

[bigblock73]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't all Blazers 1/2 tons, with the exception of Military Blazers?

You are correct sir!

[magnethead]

might move your rear axle back to- by going to 33's, the tires going to rub the running board because your axle is too far forward.

Nice blazer, but how in the heck does he have $10k invested in it?
Either way you got a great deal :p

Well then, what makes a military blazer a 3/4 ton truck? Certainly not the np208 transfer case or 10 bolt axles or the 6.2 diesel or th400 transmission? Is my 1990 blazer a 3/4 ton because it has factory HD springs front and back, quad shocks front, HD steering shock, factory air shocks rear, factory tow package, 6.2diesel, dual batteries, th700R4, NP241 with PTO and 10 bolts?
