ok, thats what i thought, but like speterson's truck, i thought his was 4x4. i'm just curious because i actually have a job now that i'm in college and have to afford living on my own and working on the truck. its amazing what mowing 5 lawns a week got you in terms of truck stuff lol

yah most people think its 4wd but its not. good old 2wd or 1wd most would say lol. I know what you mean on mowing though. I have a big lawncare company and when I started out I realized there was good money in it if you can do it fast and quick and get a lot of yards. Keep it up it will be worth it

Go take a peep into my build thread. Its slow, admittedly, but this summer will be when it picks up- exhaust, intake, and some suspension goodies along with possibly some new rims. Buying the parts before summer gets here so I have them in the shed to motivate me lol.

Hey Phil I was wondering where you got that brush bar. It looks good, did you get a deal on it and get lucky or buy it somewhere? lol

Yeah, the lawn job went belly up though last summer because there are so many companies around me who can do it faster than me with a push mower haha.. but i now work construction when i'm not in class for my cousin's company, its rough working in 20 degree weather or worse for 8 hours a day but hey, its money and tax free (gotta love family business hahaha).

it was just weird because obviously us 2wd guys are outnumbered on the site and its rare to see 2wd here in michigan (since our winters are so horrible haha). i want to lower my truck 2-3 inches for a lower center of gravity and put some new wheels on it for the summer but i don't see anyone doing that to an LS blazer, its almost always an xtreme or 4 door. Just looking for ideas and what not. Thanks guys

Got it from this store on eBay http://stores.ebay.com/Hunter-Truck-Accessories-Store

Sometimes I see it in their online stock, sometimes I don't. Send them an email and I'm sure they'll have one. I got mine for like $180 + $50 shipping, but that was during a Christmas sale.

Me and a buddy are looking at doing lawn care, too. Maybe I should get in touch with him while I am still able to mow yards, lol.

I'm doing something similar, but also adding an Xtreme body kit.

Phil that isn't a bad price for the bush gaurd I was expecting something like 350.

I would hop on the mowing wagon if you need some money lol. Started out as a weekend thing 4 years ago and now its a full time job and I'm in over my head with college and all. Gone through 3Dixie Choppers and many Stihl and echo weedeaters and edgers.
