'72 blazer lift kit removal?

I am thinking about removing the 3" body lift from my 72 blazer to make it more streetable. Any gotchas other than finding a new steering shaft that is the original length and re-attaching the bumpers at the new height?

Re: '72 blazer lift kit removal?

Something was probably done to compensate for the fan shroud positioning. Also watch your clutch linkage if a manual. If an auto, I assume you need to see how lowering the body affects the shift linkage. Your fuel filler hose was probably also lengthened. Those are some of the things I can think of to keep an eye on.

Oh, Welcome to the board!!!
