Re: LFD's some day 2wd Blazer Build

The only reason I wouldn't want to cut up a 2wd Blazer frame is that I'd rather use the 4x4 frame to get even lower.

How about ZERO with no drop spindles, or with bigger wheels, or with less negative camber

OK so were should I start!
Why would you want to keep stock 30+ yr old spindles on what will end up being a very expensive rig when you can get the latest in metal process and design with new drop spindles.

Just how big of a tire do you want because the last time I checked fender blisters were not meant to conceal your tire popping through the top of your hood!

Negative camber, that is so before the modern world of the DropMember! Do you kids make you drop them off a block away from school so their friends don't see you
