Ok, I know this has been covered in this thread, but my schools internet cannot handle me sifting through the 30 pages again lol.. I just want to make sure I have the few things I think I know right.

Rims are Pro-Comp Rockcrawlers? I know pro comp, but not sure on model

Tires are 31inches? Do you only have 2in shackles and a T-bar crank for those to fit?

Basket is a Rage Black Widow?

And what bull bar is on there? You said Ebay special I believe, but was there a model number?

Not to be annoying, but I love how well your blazer has come together, and want to incorporate some of that to my new toy. Thanks

these are my rims

These are my tires, and yea they rubbed a little bit but I chopped a lot of my fender and wheel well off, so they only rub when I'm rock crawling. This is with the tbars up the whole way so its probably a little more than 2 inches and I have 2 inch lift shackles and an add-a-leaf kit so the rear is about 3 inches

the basket I really don't know much about I bought it locally with the spare tire carrier, I was told it was a black widow by someone here on the forum.

this is my bull bar, don't be fooled by the skid plate it doesn't work very well I had it dented in the week I got it.

lol yeah the bull bar looks about as thick as the one on my quad (also dented) And thank you for all the links, I didnt expect that much effort but it is much appreciated. (appearantly the blazer community is much nicer than the GP community when it comes to doing the extra work for other members) Did your tires only rub when cornering hard/big bumps or always and do you think a 30x10.5x15 would fit with the t bars up an inch or inch and a half and the shackles on back? or would it still rub? I dont need monster tires (yet anyway) and that may save me from hacking into the thing before ive owned it a month lol

Thanks again

we like to keep our friendly forum going instead of "shouting" back and forth.

I carry 2 tires too. ever since my gf popped to of mine....


here is a good picture of where you can see where I trimmed the fender and wheel well kinda looks like there is a hole there. but if you keep your stock rims you shouldn't rub as much as me since my rims stick out 2 1/2 inches further than the stock rims and as you can see most of the rubbing occurs on the outer part of the fender. but if you are looking to get similar rims to me and don't want to chop up your fenders 30's might be a better route for you
