I was wondering if anyone could give me any advice about taking my blazer mudding. I have a 98 blazer two door (although it is not a ZR2) with 31 in. tires but stock suspension wondering if taking it off road would be a good idea or not? Thanks for the help!

Sure...just don't try to conquor the world in one night. Be smart about it. Bring a shovel, tow strap, spare tire, small toolkit, can of fix-a-flat. I try to go with someone else if I'm going extreme... It sucks getting stuck with no one to pull you out

Yea, never go alone, you'll need someone to pull you out. and extend you'r diff vent lines to higher ground to avoid getting water in your diffs.

Extra pair of socks/shoes yours are bound to get wet
Don't waste money on crappy 12K 15 foot towstraps. They break and length usually ends up being an issue. 3" towstraps are perfect 4" ones are hard to get inside the receiver.
Also don't forget a board or something flat to put under the jack just in case. Jacks don't stay very sturdy in mud
