I liked the jimmy front end too RexMBurns, but I like the blazer grill because it gives better lighting and it fits my style of what I want my truck to look like. And also there is more aftermarket lights and stuff for the blazer front end.

I like the blazer front clip with the jimmy hood. Looks nice, guess something about the body lines on the hood matching up with the edge of the headlights.

I can understand your reasoning but I don't like it!! Haha just kidding it looks great the way it is I've just always like the jimmy grill. I'm actually debating trying to find a set of jimmy lights and grill before I build my front bumper. I already swapped to a jimmy hood so that's covered. Keep up the good work your truck looks like a early version of mine kinda

I got a bit of ideas for my truck from your build thread rex. And our trucks look very much alike lol. Its interesting how similar the paint is.

Kind of a dead *** thread to resurrect, but when you were stock height with those 29s, did you ever get rubbing of any sort? I'm looking for a slightly larger tire without having to with a lift just yet. I have a 1998 Blazer 4dr 4x4 on stock wheels.

I was told you can do 30 by 9 and 1/2 R15 without rub on 4 by 4 stock.
