As far as the spares go, why not get one of those spare tire mounts on the back? I've seen them on 2 door ZR2 Blazers, wouldn't it work on any Blazer? If I could find one i'd get one. Well not me, my friend would since it's his truck.

Or depending on how the driver side rear intorior pannel looks on a 4 door, you could look into doing the inside mounted spare tire. Or just tie it down with the hooks in the cargo area?

I agree. I am getting spare tire mounts on the back. I think this will work in Blazer. You can get it in Ebay.

You don't even know about pains getting spark plugs out, until you've done it on a transverse mounted V6 or V8 and the intake manifold blocks the rear bank, that'll make you want to punch a baby.

Anywho, in the next couple weeks we'll get the exhaust done and i'll get a vid of it, I can't wait to hear it.
