Re: My first blazer!!
 

what did you use to paint bumpers ?

Re: My first blazer!!
 

i stripped the chrome after narrowing them and shaving the bolts, Then a metal etch primer. Finally painted them base/clear in what our wheel shop calls hyper silver.

some random pics, Drove it to work on tuesday and wednesday. Had to drive the Hellcat today:waah::waah:

Re: My first blazer!!
 

Great build! I just picked up a k5 and I'm debating on leaving it 4wd or converting it to 2wd. I really like the way your seats look and Im thinking of upgrading my seats as well, how did you mount them up?

Re: My first blazer!!
 

the fronts i had to build a bracket to hold them in place on the tunnel side of the seat. the outer i used the factory hole in the front and drilled a new hole in the rear. For the rear seats I used 1/2" u bolts through the floor so they operate like they did from the tahoe. You can pull the levers to pivot them and remove them like the factory did. Just make sure you reinforce the area with a large thick washer etc. as the seat belts attach directly to the seats

How much Drop do you have. I'm trying to decide if I'm going with 2/5 or 5/7. Also what size are your wheels. Thanks in advance.

Re: My first blazer!!
 

Thanks for the response! Would you happen to have any pictures for the the front bracket and installation of the rear seat?

Re: My first blazer!!
 

not positive on the drop as it was already done when i bought it. Its got spindles and maybe springs in the front and a flip kit in the rear. Wheels are 22x8 and 22x9.5

Re: My first blazer!!

Re: My first blazer!!
 

Awesome. What are you doing with the transmission

Re: My first blazer!!
 

trucks still at the tranny shop, doing a rebuild on it. It was slipping a little when i bought it so i decided to go ahead and knock it out now.

Re: My first blazer!!
 

No worries, I understand how that goes. Hopefully you get it back soon.

Re: My first blazer!!
 

Where are the pictures yo

Re: My first blazer!!
 

I still don't have the damn thing back.....Transmissions been in and out 4 times now, Still slipping between 2 and 3 shift under heavy throttle. Shop is thinking now its a transmission case issue where theres possibly a crack in it somewhere thats letting the pressure bypass? Hell I don't know. Thinking i shoulda just bought a new one! lol

Re: My first blazer!!
 

Anybody in the houston area got a crap 4l60 with a good case?

Re: My first blazer!!
 

Dang! hope you found one!

Re: My first blazer!!
 

Finally got the blazer back, turns out it had a small crack in the case that was allowing pressure to drop. Anyhoo, ill get the pics i promised everybody today

Re: My first blazer!!
 

Glad it's back, I'm sure that was stressful!
