4-link rear on a gen 1 Blazer? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Does anyone have any pics of one? I will be doing mine soon, and looking for different ideas.

Curious as to why?
What are you hoping to gain?

I know of one guy who decided to go that route and it took him 3/4 years of tweaking to get back to where he was running leafs.
(function and dependability wise)

I will be using the Blazer for prerunning and just higher speed desert use. With a properly set up 4-link, you can tune the suspension with compression and rebound instead of letting the leafs kick you around on the rebound. Just a preference.

Gawd...I wanna do that!

Sounds awesome, wish I could help out with some info.

Keep us posted, what a cool way to use a 1st gen, run'n hard.
