It's safer if you use Anti Gel solutions. You can get these at any truck stop. A $15.00 bottle will last you for 2 winters lol! Click link to see what I use. http://i1128.photobucket.com/albums/m491/chrisjhufstetler/f14da52e.jpg

My 1000 watt block heater on my blazer, inside the block. It's nice because the motor and fluids are warm and it heats up the cab very quick. I got a 600 watt in my truck. It's ok but I prefer the 1000 watt. And no it does not "Glow" lol! :???:

I put a 1000 watt block heater in mine. We are neighbors so we have about the same temps. 600 watt is good too but 1000 watt way better

It shouldn't be too hard for ya. Dropping the tank is easy! Took me only 10 mins to drop the tank. A good sharp knife will help you make it faster. Don't worry about taking the rubber hoses off the hard way. Remember your rig is old and it's smart to get new rubber fuel lines for the tank so...

No. The shop cut the frame in the rear so it's flush. Then drilled new holes in the frame to mount the bumper. Right now the bumper is off until I get the wiring and fuel cell figured out. I don't know of any website or shop that makes the tire carrier bumper for the blazer. They are all out of...

Funny... The shop told me today that when they did the flex test, that's as high as the forklift could go and there's a lot more flex in her. I need a ramp test! Lol!!!

These 90-100 gal Transfer Tanks are very common and cheap to get. As low as $100 on Craigs list! They are simple. It's like a small gas station in the back of your truck. Either electric or hand crank. I prefer the hand crank pump. The "L" shape allows for a normal in bed tool box or "T" shape...

Here's what I've got! 60gal fuel tank/Tool box combo. I was going to put in my blazer. But won't fit... Best to get yourself something like this with a external fuel pump and filter activated with a switch inside your cab filling your stock fuel tank. Sell mine for $500 PM if interested. I live...

Thanks!! 56" all the way man!! :grd:

[ thanks! I'm not rich. It's been sitting in the shop for over a year. One upgrade at a time:-) Saving and spending. So far I have no future plans. It depends on how well she performs on the trails. Maybe an Atlas down the road but buy that time it would be truggy time, you know what I mean! Lol!

Here's the front flex test. You will see better drop and articulation on the front due to no over load and the leafs are closer together. I am very pleased with everything so far. More progress coming soon:-)

Shop got the front springs back from getting re arched. Put the front back together and did a flex test. Here's the rear flex, drop and articulation.

Here's what it looks like standing back. The front spring had to be taken off and re-Arched 4".

Here you will see the Diy4x shackle flip mounted further back on the frame with the front hanger bolt holes lined up to the stock rear frame holes.To get it to fit flush on the frame, the shop grinded down the "Hump" on the frame.

Update. Rear suspension. So yea, after picking up the 64" stock rear springs from an 88 chevy 2wd truck and mocked them up, the shop relocated the stock rear front spring hanger down 2" and forward at an angle as close as he could get to the body mount. Taking the middle bolt hole on the hanger...

Cool! What's his YouTube name?

Yes thank you for the flowers. Here's a few pics of mine not finished yet but she's mounted:)

Impressive work. Your not afraid to cut either:) You should do some more weight reductions. Do you have a soft top already?

Nice! Using the plug in the front! Super cool!

Glen that good! Very good! Me likey:)
