That's how the Tru Trac is set up. It looks worse in this pic but from above isnt so bad.

big d's red67 · 10-22-2013, 07:14 AM

I'm in, looks awesome so far.

Cool, I really like the use of Chevy orange on the engine with black accessories. Looking forward to more updates.

**lolife99** · 10-22-2013, 10:02 AM

There are two different LS Tru-Tracs.
A "top mount" and a "side mount".

Yep, I picked the one I knew worked with PB and compressor clearance.

C10_ustacould · 10-22-2013, 10:43 PM

Triplets??

Sandemonium · 10-23-2013, 03:58 PM

Looks good, very interested in following the progress.

Tuned in to drool. But I'm warning ya, I reserve the right to steal ideas for my Blazer. 2000 miles erases any plagiarism accusations.

(Not to mention my Blazer will take so long, this one will be getting restored again before I am finished)

Cool! I tuned into this build hoping to see something like this. I know Nate has been wanting to put something together for conversions for a few years now.

Looks good so far- I'm in.

Dinos63 · 10-28-2013, 12:06 AM

YBNORML · 10-28-2013, 01:37 AM

Looking good! I had been thinking of giving up on my shortbox and throwing all it's parts at my blazer. I had pretty much decided against it but this thread is not helping

I'm curious where the issue was. I've converted a 4wd w/ arms before- it was tight, but it worked. Was it that you would not be able to lay frame due to arm/frame interference?

Oh, and we need an update

The trailing arms contact the frame not allowing it to fully lay out. Leaves it about 3 inches short.

**lolife99** · 11-01-2013, 10:51 AM

Is this just with the 4x4 blazer frames?

Correct. The 4WD frames run straight back at a width of 34". The 2WD frame bows out over the rear differential allowing more room and clearance for the trailing arms.

gringoloco · 11-01-2013, 11:25 AM

So when does the mild kit come out?

Slammed66 · 11-01-2013, 11:39 AM
