Looks great!

RE: New Hood
 

I'll second that!

RE: New Hood
 

oh snap who makes that?

RE: New Hood
 

i like the second pic... thats how it usually goes for me... 1 person working, 5 watching...lol

RE: New Hood
 

:D Yeah, i did a pretty great job at breaking my truck over the weekend. Broke the following: Upper and lower ball joints, steering knuckle, CV shaft, and wheel bearing all on the passenger's side. I've got my work cut out for me this coming weekend.

The hood is made by Goodmark, it's a Gen III hood.

RE: New Hood
 

dude that is SWEET!!!

RE: New Hood
 

Aww...you beat me to that hood. I've been holding off buying it cuz I'm going home soon and need the money.

RE: New Hood
 

Nice hood and VERY nice truck!

RE: New Hood
 

Just like Goverment work. haha

RE: New Hood
 

Thanks guys! I like the hood a lot. I'm looking forward to the warm weather when i can actually get the truck spotless again.

RE: New Hood
 

nice

RE: New Hood
 

Very nice!
I've always liked the looks of the ram-air styles...
Is the ram-air functional?


I'm looking at getting one myself, only, I'm going to try and find one where the raised part isn't as pointy,I guess you could call it...

RE: New Hood
 

Thanks guys.

It's functional, but as a cowl hood, not ram air. It lets hot air escape the engine bay, which helps with overheating while wheeling in the summer.

I'm sure i could figure out a way to get the ram air to work, but it's really of no interest to me, since it'd be like one big funnel to my intake while wheeling.

RE: New Hood
 

Like the hood and the wheels look great too.

RE: New Hood
 

I definatly got to go wheeling with you guys sometime. Didn't you have a safari rack on your Z? Hood looks sweet by the way. Good luck keeping it clean with those wheel spacers

RE: New Hood
 

What kind of rims are those, Sweet hood btw.

RE: New Hood
 

JST: The rims are off of a 2003 Chevy S10 CrewCab ZR5.

zero psi: I do have a safari rack for the BlaZeR2, but i hardly use it... only when i need it. It takes less than 2 minutes to install, so i don't care about putting it on and taking it off when i need to. You should definitely come out with us, it's a good time!

Looks SO good in black...

RE: New Hood
 

That is SO cool! I'd love to have big tires like that on Bob!

RE: New Hood
 

Too bad Jen is two wheel drive... Id have her jacked up to the sky with some of those BFG A/T KO tires if she was 4wd.

RE: New Hood
 

damn man, thats what a blazer should look like, i love it!

RE: New Hood
 

Another pic i took the other night. Doesn't really show the hood but i thought it was cool:

RE: New Hood
 

That is such an awesome looking truck, wow. Wish I could make mine into something like that.

RE: New Hood
 

How high is that lift and how big are those tires? I love the way it looks. Everytime I see a lifted truck I think I want to lift mine, but lifts are so expensive. [:@]

RE: New Hood
 

Thanks guys :)

Over a stock 4x4 Blazer, it's got:

2" ZR2 suspension
2" Body lift
2.25" Rear shackles
1" Rear add a leafs
1" Rear air shocks
1" Front t-bar crank

The tires are 33x12.50 BFG MT KM's, which are roughly 5" larger than stock 4x4 blazer tires.

Next spring, i plan to lose a bit of the lift in the rear (smaller shackles and lower the pressure in the air shocks), and go spring over axle. This should net me another 1-2" of lift in the rear, which will give it a bit more aggressive stance and gain me some departure angle from losing a bit of length on the shackles.

RE: New Hood
 

shexay truck!

RE: New Hood
 

Ony one word can describe that truck. SWEET!

RE: New Hood
 

Me too. Ironically his ZR2 is what inspired me to start lifting mine. Once i get Dale fixed im gonna start looking for BFG mudd terrain 33's and get a body lift and wheel spacersfrom Jigg's site. This probably wont all happen till the end of the year because of bills and all but im determined to do it. That plus some sliders and skid plates (i love having a dad whos a metal fabricator) and i should be good for a while.

Anyways before i get off topic here, nice looking blazer Justin. I gotta say its the most bad*** blazer ive seen to date. Once i get Daleall setupi would love to go wheelin with ya.

RE: New Hood
 

the hood looks great.

RE: New Hood
 

that blazer is awsome. now i really wanna get a new one.

RE: New Hood
 

the 2 door blazer look wayyy better than the 4 doors to me.

RE: New Hood
 

Different strokes for different folks. I personally like the 4-doors for their utility and and i think they look cool. The two doors do have nice styling too but they dont have the same appeal to me. I guess thats just my $0.02.

RE: New Hood
 

Is that hood fiberglass or steel? Looks awesome

RE: New Hood
 

Thanks! The hood is all steel.

RE: New Hood
 

You are gonna be hard to beat if you run in the ROTM!

RE: New Hood
 

Are those stock rims?

RE: New Hood
 

The rims are off of a 2003 Chevy S10 ZR5 Crew Cab, same size/specs as stock.
