Here is a question for you.... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I was looking at my blazer when I was taking it to the storage building and the rear end looks like it needs to go back a inch or 2 to center it in the wheel well. Have any of you done this to correct the problem? I also know the front suspension needs to go foward at least a 1 1/2" or 2". Why do most folks not fix this when they build a truck?

I did. The rear is easy, just put it where you want it, re-drill, and bolt in. The front would be a little harder though without R&P. Dropmember corrects this.

That pic looks like the c.member was slid toward the front of the truck based on seeing the trans output shaft, the location of the new c.member hardware vs. the old frame holes, & the front of the t-arms in their mount.

Am I not seeing this correctly?
