Re: 1971 2wd Chevy blazer build

Thanks I appreciate that..I cant wait until I get the rest of my Front Suspension to start building the blazer

So as everyone can see on monday I got my IFS from Heidts
And I opened all the boxes and then I opened my Wilwood Caliper box and closed it quickly
My friend asked what was in there and I showed him and the laughing and teasing began...the Calipers were very small. So I sent them back and purchased the Big Front Brake Kit

And for Rear Brakes I have a 1996 Chevy Impala SS 8.5 rear end with small Calipers on them for now

The Sway Bar is Touching the Air bag... My guess is I dont use the sway bar? But it came with the IFS Kit

Re: 1971 2wd Chevy blazer build

Still having problems with the sway bar clearance issues..

So I came up with another idea to resolve the issue. Im moving forward rather than standing here doing nothing. Test fitting the brakes to make sure no issues..Was sent the wrong brake caliper color. so Im waiting for the new one to arrive

So going to order the rest of my air bag suspension to get that going. Compressor, lines etc

Fronts are 14" rotors with 6 piston Calipers.

Re: 1971 2wd Chevy blazer build

Times have changed for me to shift my project and Unfortunately I Have to sell my Blazer. I will be posting here for sale soon. I'm Waiting for a moderator to help with my postings .

You have to be a paid member to post something for sale. That is probably the issue you are having
