Seen your Burb at Truckfest here in Denver. Never saw anyone near but us guys trying to keep the drool off your burb. If you still have the original Drivetrain Please Le me know my buddy looking for a setup now for his 71 2wd blazer.

Well it's all done. Took 8 days to run-drive then another 2 weeks to finish the paint work. Now on to the next one.
