That is one nice clean blazer! You should be able to fit the 31s on, if they rub you can just grind off the folds in the bottom edge of the fender where they are rubbing.

Thanks sofly.

I went out and measured for the 31's they will be VERY close to rubbing at the height she's at right now. So i could probably get away with them with some trimming of the inner fenders, not sure if i'm going to go that route or not yet though. We shall see in time. This is going to be a slow build lol.

Speaking of tires, I've got 2 tires in mind. Anyone have any experience with the Dunlops? I was dead set on the Duratracs but then i noticed they don't have them in the 30" size.

Ok cool thanks gio.

The truck is my daily driver....but i'm going for an off-road / aggressive look without going too crazy with it. I don't mind a little roughness on the road as long as it's not unsafe. I do off road occasionally although nothing real hardcore as the truck is my dd.

The fill point you mean? It's on the side of the diff. Passenger side just above the fin on the pinion sorta.
It's a square driver, I belive a 3/8 ratchet with a short extension will do it.

Yeah my old truck had a plug so I couldn't find it on the jimmy
