Clean your front rims...get rid of that brake dust

Looking good so far though. Is that as low as you're going?

Your idea of a dirty truck is not the same as mine. (Yours always is clean)

That interior is amazing, looks real comfy. I like that Typhoon and Eclipse (Mazda RX7?) That you have in those pics. Nice little assembly of vehicles!

thanks everyone, to answer a few questions and respond to some comments :

once I put the 2" blocks on the rear that will more than likely be as low as I go (I'm still surprised the wife let me buy this kit...I guess the free shocks were what made the deal)

I'm trying to find some time to clean this beast, should be pretty soon I'll have some daylight when I get home from work (30 mile commute into work and 30 mile commute home means that its dark when I leave and dark when I get home...for now, the days are starting to get longer)

The Eclipse is my wife's, she loves it so I can't complain (that and it's paid for)...you can see more pictures here if you're interested in doing so...Wife's Car

and as for now I'm trying to decide if I want to keep my stock wheels, go with new style ZQ8's, or maybe even do some Corvette Wagon Wheels, still pretty undecided about it all. Another option was to paint my stock rims, perhaps a gun metal color with the silver lip. I don't know, I'm more or less leaning towards the ZQ8's though.


I would also like to get a roll pan and a new hitch to help clean up the back of the blazer
