Title: My wheelin Blazer
Post by: Blazin on August 30, 2008, 07:12:36 am: Well tore into it last night. Swapping a 14 bolt, and Dana 60 into the Blazer. Got a set of 44" Gumbos for it too! Doing it on the cheap as its temporary until I build the ex civil service 84 Blazer. Plus it has to be ready for Sept 14th. We are having a memorial mud bog for Steven Blay, he was the boy I posted about that was killed earlier this month in the wreck.

Post by: Blazin on August 31, 2008, 09:19:03 pm: I run 30 to 35 pounds in my 35s on it now. Not sure on the 44s, I try to keep it some what near the recommended pressure as I drive it to and from the trails up the road. I trailer it to the bog. Its to far and its not registered.

That was the first run, when it still had oil pressure! :o
Had three more runs left in her before she gave it up! Pulled it tonight, dropping another in tomorrow night for the annual 4x party on Saterday that my buddy has.
