Dude that Blazer in your avatar is sweet. Saw it on layingbody.com. Have you seen any interior shots anywhere?

These are some pics I took of it at the show in Lake Charles, LA. I could have sworn that I had gotten some shots of the interior. It was a basic interior though, no side panels, just buckets and a bench.

Sorry for the hijack

Nice oragne blazer, if I owned it I would knock that guy on his ass for sitting on my paint.

That blazer looks sweer but I aint crazy about the dust shields behind the wheels. It would look a lot better with some big brakes showing.

Pretty good idea. I may have to look into that.

pharcyde05 · 09-15-2006, 08:32 PM

hear is one after the tank was mounted

pharcyde05 · 09-15-2006, 08:34 PM

all the way layed out

LUV2XCLR8 · 09-15-2006, 08:34 PM

Dayum, that thing is sectioned big time

classicchev · 09-16-2006, 03:37 PM

Yeah got them both, and both are sitting side by side on the shelf!

gringoloco · 09-24-2006, 02:45 AM

Pharcyde- in your pics it looks like you are laying pinch.

- Did you do this with an 8" step notch only?
- Anything besides spindles/bags in front?
- Any trailing arm/frame interference probs?

-Chris

There will be interference problems with the trailing arms, but nothing that cant be overcome. Mine were hitting the frame even with my 6.5" notch

Do you think moving the perches on the axle closer to center would give enough clearance?

Did you section the engine x member? or Z the frame? to get it it to lay pinchweld.

Mine does not lay pinchweld. Its a couple of inches from it.

Is it possible to lay pinchweld or come close within 1/4" without Z'ing the frame? I only plan to notch the engine crossmember.

yes its just a 8 in notch and yes the frame had to be notched slighty to clear the trailing arms
in the front i lowered the botton of the lower a arm and built a pocket for the bag to sit in and z notched frame 2.5 in this will work if i stay with 20" wheels if i want to run 22" wheels i will have to get drop spindels

do you have any close up pics on this area?

LUV2XCLR8 · 09-24-2006, 08:31 AM

I like almost everything about that, BUT ..................... I'd have to change a few things.
Don't get me wrong, it's sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet as it can be, just have different tastes.

smbrouss70 · 09-25-2006, 10:05 AM

That one was the owner

**N2TRUX** · 09-25-2006, 10:45 AM

jkade- I think your original question was how low you could get without cutting up your floor, etc. I know this isn't a Blazer, but this truck is about as low as you can get without cutting the bed or fenderliners and it does not have a raised crossmember-

That stance looks good. But it just isnt low enough for my taste. I want the pinchweld almost on the ground. I have no problems with a c notch , crossmember and Inner fender mods.
