Default Kansas City metro area owners, need help

I live in South Kansas City. Just bought a 1998 2door 4wd. Looking for a guru or group who can help with minor repairs and mods. Looking to go wheeling also! Anyone around?

I live in Oak Grove, I won't call myself a guru but I may know a thing or two. I too want to get into some mud. Maybe we can get together and see what we can find.

Jake- What lift did you go with? Thinking of add-a-leaf for the rear to fix the sag and then maybe shackles. Haven't figured out what to do with the front yet. Still not sure if my 4WD/T-case works. Haven't had much time to mess with it.

What ya'll got going on next wknd?

Jake I've heard of monkey mountain but never anything about wheeling out there. Its public land isn't it? And I too am interested in lifting my blazer but I'm thinking about going the shackle, torsion bar route.

i did the rough country 2.5 lift. its shackle torsion, upper arms, and diff drop brackets. best investment. thats the only way to go and do it correctly otherwise you would be replacing ball joints and cv axles.
