A: Do you have any problems legally, (cops or inspection), with the turndown exhaust?
Noticed you didn't have the tailpipes, thinking about doing the same.

B: Any problems with smells or discoloring underneath your rig? Agian, I like it. That should've been a package on the blazers (besides ZR2 of cource).
it doesn't pass inspection at least in PA. the pipe has to leave the passenger compartment. the only trucks that you can dump like that legally is a pickup truck because its dumped under the bed and its not a part of the passenger compartment. I have mine dumped, I haven't had any problems with gas or smells coming in other than when I smashed my back window

but back on topic, truck looks nice I'm probably going to put a body lift on mine so I don't have to trim my fenders

RebelJimmy, Didn't notice you were from AR till you said Arkansas doesn't have inspections. It's a good thing we don't or my whole family would be screwed.

Uncles dodge has strait pipes, you can hear him coming a mile away and he's never been stopped for em.

BTW love the Jimmy. Gonna lift mine sometime soon...

Your Jimmy looks pretty slick lifted, especially with the color. Welcome to the world of lift. You'll probably find yourself parking next to stock Jimmys/Blazers now, at least that's what I do.

You might also get the occasional urge to drive over small ricers, especially when/if you put a brush guard on. Your rig would look really good with a nice Westin brush guard.

not to mention running over anything else, I like to drive up over curbs and stuff and watch people make weird faces at me

yes i park next to stock jimmy's n blazers and get all the looks! like dang Ive never seen a lifted 4 door jimmy b4. and spectreblazer get the pa kit. and the brush guard is next. supposedly they never mad one to fit a 96 but i bet i can mod one from a 98 model
due to im a certified mig/tig welder and fab BTW the nurf bars are off a 2001 Diamond Edition Jimmy those were stock brushed aluminum and mount direct to the frame then i mig welded them for added strength . here she is in the snow.


she is a tank cant even make it slip! i highly recommend the Goodyear wrangler authority's from walmart for $130 a piece. and there is a eBay member that parts out s-10's and blazers look them up u can get hell of good deals and i also used http://www.shop.synergyoffroad.com/main.sc
jigg is the owner and can help ya out on anything s-10 or blazer or jimmy or sonoma
