Newbie from lacey,wa

Hey everyone just wanted to say hi and i am very eager to get started on my new project with my brother who is also on the forum, mmgoodie. i have eclosed the only pic i have of it right now. it needs a few things to start out with like both driver and passenger door latches so i can actually lock it. lol and slo the guts for the rear upper hatch so i can lock and unlock it too. but other then that it's nothing to major at all. This is my frist k5 blazer so it should be fun. a few other things i plan to do it take out the body lift and just do an add-a-leaf with the 4" suspension lift and just run 35's. i look forward to chatting it up alot on here.

Re: Newbie from lacey,wa

to the board!

Thats one mean lookin' front bumper and a nice lookin' blazer. Try Christians Classics for your door hardware. Not sure on the hatch lock. I think you can go to your local hardware and buy a t handle for a garage door and make it work. Looks like you could fit 35's on stock ralleys right now. What size tires are on it?

Re: Newbie from lacey,wa

Why thank you for the welcome. actually it's not the handle part that needs replacing it's outside latches and rods that need to be replaced. the guy i got it from said when he got it had 36's under it. right now it is sitting on 33's.

Welcome from just up I-5. Check with Wes at ClassicHeartBeat.com for the parts. He's just down in Olympia. Keep an eye on the Washington section of the board. We have get togethers once in a while.
