Default Toying around with it

I'm back. Things have been a little busy at work recently. (I'm sure Kyle understands) I have, however, managed to play a little bit with my Blazer.

I managed to pull our Squad out of the station and pull my Blazer in to lift it a little during my down time.

I put Leaf Helpers on the rear to aid some tired, sagging springs, and I cranked the Torsion bars up in the front.

It doesn't look like a monster, but it helped with tire rub in the wheel wells from my 31's.

I see a ton a new members with great-looking trucks........Gotta love it!

One more thing......Thanks to jimmyboy for my nomination, but I was just too busy.

How much did you crank it up in the front? How bad do those 31s rub? I think it looks great and want to do 31s on my ride but I'm worried about serious rubbing issues.

Don't rub at all! It's cranked about 1.5". Before I cranked it, I had problems with the tires hitting the wheel well, particularly the silver trim around the fender, whenever I would have suspension travel. (Big bump or dip in the road) Side-to-side they don't rub and that all depends on the type of tire you spin on there.
