New here but on my second blazer a 1997 and a 1987 some of my favorite rides just trying to decide on what needs to be done to it. On my current blazer the 97 its all stock lt 4 x 4 with 225000 miles I've had it for 6 years and he only major thing I've done to it was replace the tras at 180000 miles. Looking for thoughts nd suggestions without dropping a ton of cash

you could do the shackle and torsion bar crank for a little lift.
bedliner rockers.
add a spare carrier on the rear.
lights to the factory roof rack.

i guess it all depends on what you want to do.
i would look thru the ride of the month pics...makes for some nice mod ideas and you can see how they look.

Welcome from Oklahoma. Are you looking more for interior or exterior modifications?

There are a lot of available exterior mods. Mild lifts, bigger tires, paint/bedliner rocker panels, light bar, roof rack, bull bar/brush guard, cheap steel wheels for wider stance, tire carrier add on. I added a cheap back up camera to mine just to help in situations where I'm in the garage and don't wanna back into any thing that'll cause scratches

Thanks I'm looking at roof mounted lights and bed linering the rockers. Thinking about the RC 2.5 lift and 31 x 10.50 tires hopefully before the winter
