Lowrodder I have seen that pic before. It was one of the many that solidified my desire for a two-tone Blazer. What is your lift/tire combo?

Re: Another thread asking for pics

If those are 35's then I would guesstimate you have about a 4" lift. Do your tires rub anywhere? I have a 1980 GMC stepside 4X4, hence my screen name. It has a 4" ProCrap springs in front and. 2" all w/block in the rear. I run 35's on it, but I have also had some 37's on it, but never drove it a lot with them on.

Re: Another thread asking for pics

Welcome to the world of lifted truck!

I have had
1980 GMC Stepside 4" lift w/35's
1992 Chevy Blazer 6.5" lift w/35's
1999 Chevy Suburban 6.5" suspensions lift and 3" body lift, w/37's
My daily driver is
2003 Ford Excursion 7.3L Diesel, 7" lift w/37's

So my Blazer will not stay this short!
