Well we put her through a hell of a test tonight! It passed with flying colors! We were out hunting and the wife said let's see where this road goes... ended up driving down an almost vertical 1/2 mile stretch of mountain road covered in baseball size rocks. That wasn't bad. The bad part was when we hit a locked gate and had to turn around and go back up in the dark. I wasn't sure we were going to make it back up but the blazer bounced and spun and some how found traction. It clawed its way out and got us home safe and sound.

There's been many time where I doubted my blazer, and then she turned around and told me where to go!

That's why I don't have a "problem" dropping money into her lol, she deserves it...

Finally got around to installing the lights on the bumper. Next on the list is the led turn signals in the bumper.

Not what I wanted to change this morning!


But I've done enough of them it only took me 20 minutes. Once again a body lift makes everything easier to work on.

And then I do this...



Drifting the corner and stuffed it in the bank lol. I kicked some snow away from the tires and drove out. This thing needs a limited slip or a locker though. It doesn't do as good in the the snow and ice as the jimmy did.
