Redder 10-27-2008, 12:33 AM awesome rig...that body style is hands down GM's finest. if only I could find a clean up here:(
Off-Road Master 10-27-2008, 12:47 AM Nice job. Any trail pics yet?
fra66le25 10-27-2008, 01:04 AM Nice job. Any trail pics yet?
no just got it back and am driving it around to find all the lil bugs to work out but snow and mud season is coming to i will head to hollister ca, and chk how it does
Grumpy_old_fart 10-27-2008, 01:34 AM needs a fan shroud, but i like the hydraulic clutch setup.
leeman1790 10-27-2008, 07:46 AM Very nice man, and grumpy...no fan shroud makes things more interesting when under the hood.
thebeeter 10-27-2008, 07:58 AM good looking truck.
does your front drive shaft have enough compression? if it doesnt your t case adapter wont be happy.
what kind of slave cylinder is that?
Mechanos 10-27-2008, 08:22 AM Brings back memories.... 20 years ago I had a '69 C10 CST that was painted the same metallic frost mint green as seen in some of your pics.
rcurrier44 10-27-2008, 08:24 AM Got my truck back

As for sugestions... To tall. Needs cross over atleast.
Cleen looking K5 though.

Have you checked your brake lines and shafts at full droop?
71chevy4x4 10-27-2008, 08:37 AM Can you post some pics of your clutch pedal setup? I hope to be converting mine to hydro soon!
Odin K30 10-27-2008, 08:54 AM I like it.
Makes me miss my 71 Blazer.
No rust??? Check the rocker boxes real good.

X2 ..... how do you like it ????............

I thought mine was atleast ok on the rust issue, then I saw in my rocker boxes...:eek:
Have you checked your brake lines and shafts at full droop?
spring shackle angle/length is going to limit the droop a lot
if he corrects that then he will definintely need to address driveshaft slip length
nice truck for sure

tallhoedude 10-28-2008, 05:14 AM very nice.i love the first gen blazers.actually building a 70k5 myself.
are you gonna build any rollcage?
CDA 455 10-28-2008, 12:19 PM Nice rig!
It's nice to see a fellow 1st Gen. Blazer :beer: !
Super Steve 10-28-2008, 01:05 PM wow that thing is amaizing... deffinately inspiring
Firewiz 10-28-2008, 06:28 PM What bore master cylinder did you use? and what slave did you use? I have the 7/8 master and the clutch is a bit stiff.
just4cuz 10-28-2008, 11:23 PM Very nice, I agree with whom ever recommended cross steer should be your next project. Looks like your drag link drops quite a ways to the arm. Lots of folks are diggin it, keep up the good work.
Ten_Bucks 10-29-2008, 09:01 PM Thats a very nice rig!
Scott
bon_jovi 02-21-2009, 08:29 AM Anything new?
reddwarf 02-21-2009, 11:02 AM the set up is from wilwood and it is a 3/4 size
What about your slave cylinder? Deosn't look like a wilwood or stock??
And did you make your bracket or?
83K30 02-22-2009, 04:07 PM This rig forsale on craigslist?
