So I remounted the dash today and ran the wiring in it as well. Just have to figure out why my right side directionals dont work and the brake lights. Otherwise all the lights work good. I managed to fit the stock 4.3 radiator in it with plenty of clearance also.

Dash in with stock K5 tilt colume.

Had to weld a u-joint into the steering colume since I blew out the stock rubber crap one.

Finally got the wheels straight to see how far the axle sits forward. Not to bad at 2" forward.

We pulled the blazer body off the frame with the winch onto my trailer. Then it went to A1.

Put my body mount on today. I bolted them into the frame until I weld them permently at work. Still need to pick up some rubber isolation washers for them though.

I also ripped out all the brake lines and prop valve to replace tomorrow.  
I positioned my front bumper up to make mounts for that tonight and weld up in the morning.

I figured out that I need to cut out 14" of the front of my long bed to have it fit correctly. I am going to try to tackle that tomorrow as well.

Oh I plan to! I have been thinking a 4" lift, otherwise it will be a PITA to get into. I planed on running the max sized road legal tire which I think is 37’s or38’s.

Considering the tires already stick out pass the fenders more then 6". That would be just more to add on top of a fine.

Ah yes, wasnt sure who it was. I lost most of my contacts on my phone. Depending on price and the measurements on it and if I dont have to cut it, I will consider it. It needs to be 32" from the front of the box to the center of the wheel well. Otherwise I will cut the long bed down.
