nice truck you've got there.get a wilson 5000 magnet mount antenna works a lot better.

Ive got an 87 blazer that is black also, no lift or wheels but now i know what looks good.do any of you guys ever worry about the salt ruining your trucks?Or am i just paranoid.:crazy:

My bottom half has been Rhino lined and I wash it as soon as the roads clear of snow...or 1 week, whichever comes first.

I was wondering about rhino lining the bottom of my blazer also.Damn mid-eastern states! How did you go about doing it.Did you pull the body off and put it on a rotissere.I want to do my k-30 body that way too.Thanks for the input.Your blazer looks good.

Kool pictures and awesome looking Blazer. Looks pretty damn cold out.

You call that Winter? Bahh! Here's some winter for you!

Almost 2ft of white stuff a few days before x-mas. I'm in Winter Park (good name huh?) to take my 10 yr old boy skiiing for the first time.

It was fun bashing through yuppie town in a nasty K5...

nice pics.... I work for the Union Pacific, thanks for stopping at the crossings, so we dont hit you...lol

I guess I'll play - 1992 Suburban stuck in the snow after a seven foot dump in 2005 -

Ha, our winter is over, and my winter project, my 86 k5 has had a passenger mirror put on it. I know guys, ive got so far. Hopefully she will be ready to play next year, ill probally start working on it in the next few weeks.

Well, my gift from my K5 to me for all the winter driving I did was to cough up the front drive shaft. 30+ year old CV joint couldn't hack it anymore. Last snow we got i was driving home from the airport at midnight and noticed a wicked vibration from the front end after i shifted into 4hi for the ride home. It wasn't a lot of snow, but I've been a passenger in a bronco that rolled on less so the use of 4hi was just out of precaution. 50 ft with the drivline shaking and I decided to take the risk in 2wd and take it easy on the way home. Further inspection revealed a ton of newfound slop in the front drive shaft. $94 later in parts to get it rebuilt and we won't see any more snow! Just spring wheeling!

Someone say 'K5's in snow' ? :hm:

ah yes... I miss the snow.....closest I have is the white sand beaches that can look like drifting snow... but I am from SD and have seen and played in plenty of snow :lol:
