do this on an extreamly regular basis and the truck has paid for it lol. i just replaced 2 upper ball joints a wheel bearing (for the second time since nov) idler arm ( also for the second time since nov) and the steering stabilizer (went with a rancho (part # RS5401) to handle the bigger tires) and now i will not do it anymore because of how bad my truck got in such a short period because of my abuse lol. now she drives like a caddy haha

i remember always jumping parking blocks when i was way younger and got my first k5. also a few offroad places we used to go involved jumping the curb

i guess this kinda counts a curb. probably was at one time

If that's a curb, I'd hate to see a wall

The only curbs i really conquer are the few around me when i'm going from one lot to the next for classes and when i'm feeling adventurous i hop the parking barricades at my old high school where i work. I'm also only 2wd and have problems with the barricade because its almost perfectly vertical and if i gas it too much i end up burning out haha

About once a week. When I park at work if the spot is near the sidewalk, I just drive my front wheel up on the sidewalk, then back into the spot. There's a few lifted trucks at work so no body says anything. Have to be careful or I rub the back of the fender.

I really need to cut and hammer those back some... Unless someone wants to sponser me with a 5-6 inch suspension lift or preferably a SFA swap with dana 44's with 4.56 ratio.... fine I'll get the saws-all out. Ha ha

BTW Abig84, nice blazer. That's awesome and it looks like it's been "enjoyed" a few times, lol.
