Got the Lift spacer and new struts in.
Image

While i was under there i found out the autoshop i was renting the lift at, ($5hr), they had a plasma cutter and the overseer of the shop was a welder and offered to cut room for me to get to the bolts.

Pic of the resonator delete.
Image

Me just taking it all in standing next to the tires and looking over the exhaust.
Image

The same guy who cut room for the UCA also welded the exhaust tip on since Washington state requires your exhaust tip to come out of the body. i just went to autozone and got a 18" straight pipe and turndown tip. BTW he did all the cutting and welding for free.
Image
Also removed the spare tire from under the body.

Got the sticker on.

Just a pic of the rear shocks and Z71 springs with marks spacer.

So after my very first time wheeling anything lifted I've decided I want 4.10 gears to be my next mod. Found a front carrier assembly with 4.10 gears for 215 shipped on eBay. They swear that they are 4.10 so I took the plunge and ordered it. I'm gonna wait for the rear since that is much more common. It will also give me time to clean and rebuild the front and add a front locker or something like that.

Got a new front welded on. The Bumper itself was only $230 The issue was my trailblazers mounting horns where exactly 1inch to big in each way. Since I have Mike's radiator skid plate on order I made sure I didn't cover the stock holes.
so i had a buddy of mine weld it on secure so its safe but im gonna be taking it to an actual shop to have it cleaned up.


Here is a link to a some what more detailed thread.

Got some time to reorganize my rear storage a little bit :zombie: .

Image

Fire Extinguisher.

Image

My newbie first aid kit. We had an extra at work so I took it.

Image

My cheapo Air Compressor. I had to cut room for it but it was nothing since there is a crap load of useless plastic back there.

Image

My SWR meter.
