Welcome to the club (I just joined, too)! I have also owned a camaro and mustang, but frequently offroad. It's a world apart from sports cars and a fun all its own. I highly recommend it! I just bought a 2001 GMC jimmy for my wife that needs the 4x4 tinkered with, but besides that it runs great and I think you'll find your 01 blazer will be a lot of fun. Again, welcome!

Hey guys I'm buying a 98 blazer 4 door 4wd and I have plans on lowering it and putting rims on it. I can't find any lowering kits for my truck the only ones that I'm finding are for 2wd trucks, and I also wanted to know my driver locking mechanism and window regulator are messed up is there any other trucks or years that will fit my truck

Welcome to the forum! I just got a ZR2 last week. I grew up around offroading and getting dirty and I can say that it is a blast! Especially if you get a group of people to go trail riding or mud bogging. So much better than riding solo. Not familiar with Michigan but good luck trying to find a place to go.
