So this week I got my first cv replaced. Drivers side. passenger side will go soon Im sure so Ill probablly go ahead and do that one too soon.
I sanded and painted the rear roof rack piece so now it is black again.
I trimmed behind my front tires more so hopefully it wont rub while doing a sharp uphill turn any longer.. Doing the rear rotors and pads this weekend.. maybe door actuator and rear wiper motor..



Couple new shots!

i have a question about this lift, i remember reading somewhere that it only has 1.5 inch lift shackels for the back?just wanted to see if that was true or not, because the back end of my blazer is sagging pretty bad, 1.5 inches would probably only get it to stock height

With the shackles and shocks mine went up 2.5"
here is a photo of my rear shackle. it is 9" tall.



So between the new shocks and shackles if yours still sags its the leafs.
