i added wheel adaptors change the pattern to jeeps lug pattern becasue my old blazer had jeep axles and i used the rims off my old blazer the wheel adaptors are cool cuz they also pushed the wheel 1.75 inchs out

i have alot more to add to this build just dont have the pics on computer i put a new engine in and started to add bedliner the lower body trim

Looks very nice! I love the wide stance!

oh i do too maybe tonight i can add more pics of more progess of the car

That's pretty cool looking ad on some fender flares and you've pretty much got a ZR-2 lol where did you buy wheel adapters from?

Good old eBay I believe they were like 40 or 60 a pair

so after about 3 or 4 months of owning the blazer iwas beating on it alittle on the highway and it turned off right when i got off my exit and didnt trun back on i almost crash beacuse of no pwer brakes or steering but i throught it in 4th and roll started it and when i started it a rod knock a hello loud one and huge power lose and the truck only had 110,00 miles so i saved my money and bought a jasper long block becasue it has a 100,00 miles warrenty the engine costed about 2000 with all new water pump plugs air filter etc not a bad deal so after getting starting the engine swap it was the most impossible thing and ive done a 95 before (my old blazer) and it was easy it had 700r4 and was easy to disconnect but with the manual the input shaft has to come out so much to get the engine out i pretty much had the hole tranny out in my drive way but here are my little bit of pictures i have from it i didnt take much cuz i was always to fustrated with the car

this is when i got the engine lose
