redz 1970 K5 07-17-2004, 08:35 PM 6" and 35x12.50's looks like to me.
71 Blazer CST man 07-17-2004, 08:42 PM nawww 35s' you think really?
LUV2XCLR8 07-17-2004, 08:44 PM I'LL SAY 8" AND 35 X 12.50'S OR 6" AND 33 X 12.50'S ONLY BECAUSE OF THE
TIRE GAP, I'M SURE I COULD BE WRONG ON EITHER ONE OF THEM :rolleyes: ;) :rolleyes:
vtblazer 07-17-2004, 09:01 PM Looks like only a 4" lift w/32.5's to me. Maybe only 31's even.
71 Blazer CST man 07-17-2004, 09:10 PM Yea, i'm going with VTBlazer, thanks guys. I want a 3-4" lift with 32-33"s, something very much like that.... so when i heard 35"s...heh.
vtblazer 07-17-2004, 09:17 PM My 2 cents...
If your wanting an all around truck, good stance, good ride...a 4" lift with some nice 33's can't be beat.
Throw on some 10" alloy's and be drivin' :metal:
Here's an example :D
Yeh, I think vtblazer nailed it. Definitely not a 6" or 8" lift on that Blazer. I'm running an 8" and I don't think that Blazer exactly stacks up, ya know what I mean?
vtblazer 07-17-2004, 09:50 PM Pont, sweet truck :flag:
bouncytruck 07-17-2004, 11:30 PM I'm with VT as well. My '69 has a 6" and 35s and it is a lot bigger than that. My '72 has a 4" and stock tires and it looks closer to that.
72blazercst 07-19-2004, 10:46 PM look at the picture of the front axle it dosnt look like a lifted spring under there , and he dosnt have orig counsol in there he has cup holders
Blazer1970 07-20-2004, 06:51 AM look at the picture of the front axle it dosnt look like a lifted spring under there , and he dosnt have orig counsol in there he has cup holders
That is definitely a lift spring on the front. Stock front springs bend down, not up (negative arch). The console is not original - it is either aftermarket or from a newer truck.
71 Blazer CST man 07-20-2004, 07:07 AM Yea, i'm for sure in need of ones bending UP
Edit: Note my busted rivit on my hood hinge, held by a loose nut&bolt :metal: what a slacker i am :lol: But hey atleast i took care of my MINOR rust properly
Grim Reaper 07-20-2004, 02:58 PM That's 33's at best. probably a new 4 inch lift that hasn't settled in yet.
This is BFG 35 inch KM's on a 15x10 rim. Truck is wrong body style but it's 3.75 inches over stock in the front an 5.5 rear and the fenders are hogged out.
meathead95 07-20-2004, 03:14 PM i would say it is a 4" lift with 31's
71 Blazer CST man 07-20-2004, 04:13 PM I'v got 31s and i think they look closer to them then 33"s. So can this thing flex, or what? Do the smaller tires give it more room to twist up?
swampbuck 07-20-2004, 07:29 PM Here Is my 69 with a 4 inch skyjacker lift with 33 well worn inch tires. Barely fits under a 7ft door. :rolleyes:

Looks Great, Mich. buddy :p :metal:
72blazercst 07-21-2004, 11:23 AM swampbuck, man if you threw some new rims and tires on there that blazer would look clean, thats a nice rig,
saw your other post and found out tires are on the way, :metal:
