So I'm gonna be going with HP30 with s10 hubs and a ZR2 rear axle.

Plans for HP30
E Locker
Full C clip axles
4.56 gears

Plans for ZR2 axle
E locker

I'm going sua and run 33s. I'm trading my 35x12.50 Baja claws for 33x12.50 ProComp Xtreme mud terrain 2s.

Well I no longer have the Blazer. I needed a truck and was starting to have a lot of problems with the Blazer. Don't worry I still have a s-series. I ended up trading for a 1993 s10 extended cab with a 2.8 and 5 speed 2wd. Has some rust but not as bad as the Blazer. She as 148,000 miles with is lower for around here.

ell on the way home from work tonight the motor decided to throw a rod. Lucky I know the guy I traded with and he is gonna let me trade back. I would've kept it but I don't have another vehicle it drive while changing motors. So my build thread will continue on the Blazer

Yeah but at least I got the Blazer back. I did get my hp30 bought today. I plan on getting it out of the jeep this weekend if it doesn't rain

This hasn't been my week. Transmission decided the reverse should quit.

Well I wasn't able to get the d30 out this weekend. Been raining the past three daysi plan on running the d30 till I can find a d44. I only paid $100 for it. Since none of my 4wd wants to work now I've decided to convert my stock transfer to manual. I'm going to weld a 9/16in wrench to the piece in my shifter motor and have it go through my floor board. I saw a guy on zr2 forums do the same thing. I also picked up a trans that needed rebuilt at work for cheap. I'm having it rebuilt and getting a shift kit and vette servos put in.

I forgot but I did find a cheap version of the highlight jack in back of of a truck at work the other day. It didn't have a base but I can build one easily.
