My rig had a similar snafu that i had even made a thread about because it had confused me so much, until i pulled them back out to inspect the core support for warping and noticed after reinstall that the tabs just werent seated in, they're kinda a pain lol.

Not much in the way of updates over the weekend. I will have a little bit of an update tomorrow though. In the mean time enjoy the lineup of vehicles at my parents' house. All 3 vehicles have been used off-road but the Subaru is the impetus for my screen name here. That vehicle has spent many thousands of miles off road around California.

Today we got the center caps finished up looking like the old 80s/90s red and black bowtie. We also got the OEM 4x4 decals put on (+50 horsepower, from what I've read).
I think we're basically done for now until the next major upgrade...

Small updates today. Took the front spacers off (they're for sale!) attached are pics of the rear track. With the 25mm spacers the rear nearly perfectly matches the front. It looks great. Also I got this cool little doodad in the mail... I heard they make a big difference in the steering.

Pops decides to put some larger tires on. Here it is with the front cranked up about 3/4" and sitting on 30x9.50R15 Falken Wildpeak AT3W tires. I ran these on my Forester and loved them. They're going to be great in the dirt and snow that this thing will see eventually.
the LT235/75R15 Goodyear Duratracs I took off are for sale. They have tons of tread left.

We finally took the Blazer out for it's maiden (to us) voyage. Did about 30 miles of dirt visiting Crystal Peak near the CA/NV border. It was a great trip and the truck did great. I just wish the lift kit had already come in so I could be rid of the last bit of front end play (rag joint and upper ball joints). No pics of the truck dirty, didn't think about it til after we washed it. Oh well.
