Re: got me my 1st blazer
Congrats on your new addition to the family!
Interesting what they did to the doors - how is that to get in to and out of? |

Re: got me my 1st blazer
oh something to get used to but not bad, even with 39s on it its not too bad, step on nurf bar,pull in with steering wheel so not bad but it sure looks neat, I plan to figure out a new hinge and cut up some 1/2 rusted out doors and continue the body curves on the mini door.

Re: got me my 1st blazer
Very interesting doors.
You should look how VT cut the bottom of the body off his rig and put in some sliders.

Re: got me my 1st blazer
Interesting doors. Be careful pulling on the steering wheel to get in, that can be a little rough on the bearings. Enjoy the K5!

Re: got me my 1st blazer
I see you tested the 4 wheel drive system. Looks like it all works.
