its a 20 gallon rci. it fits perfect in the frame rails and left just enough room to get some more air storage under the truck, i have two compressors and 8 gallons of air stuffed underneath

yes he did, im happy with the floor, makes for an awkward speaker box, i have a box in the back now with two L7 10's and two L7 15's. i just unhook the 15's when its not at a show.

The 4 link tabs and everything look really good. I was wondering why you didnt gusset the front frame horns after you dropped them? Or did you just not get any pics of it up?

i dont have any pics of it up, i made some water jet pieces but i didnt like them so i cut it out and used some scrap tubing to make every thing look clean.

we swapped in a two wheel drive frame. and Z'ed it 3.5 inches. it lays nicely on 22's with room to spare so the control arms dont drag.

Chevyrod · 11-17-2008, 09:25 PM

Very Nice Work!!!!! Keep us posted on the build.

I miss my blazer every day... Then I walk out to this every morning and it doesn't seem so bad...
