I have a 79 K5 blazer and I want to attempt to do this. Do you think I should c-notch? I have a general idea but I’m not sure if I want to do it. It’s my daily so I don’t want to lose to much comfort, like there is any anyways, or risk anything.
We didn't notch this one and he's only touched the frame to it a couple times and that's been hitting big bumps or hauling loads with it. He's been using it as his daily all summer with no issues. You can always add a notch later. And you're not going to be hauling much in a Blazer I presume. Thanks for watching!
I have a flip kit for my 82 and shackle replacement for rear and lowering springs for the front along with a 454 to add weight. What else do you think id need?
@@MortskeRepair yep thats what imma have to do. I put some knuckles in it for now im sitting around a 4/6 with those in. Without them easily a 6/6. But Im going tubulars anyways and coils. So i figured why not cut em lol
@@MortskeRepair yes I did see it, great job, how many coils did you end up with on the blazer? I have my gear ready just waiting on the snow to melt before I giver on my c10
@@JulianFRosales Anytime!! These are just personal preference. We debated between a 245 and 255 on the front but the 275 is my go to on the rear. You could do a 295/50 as well but the sidewall isn't as appealing to me on those. If you need any more info give us a shout @ mortskerepair@gmail.com
I think there's another comment that I posted the link. May be in the description as well. Or do a quick search on ebay for 73-87 flip kit. Thanks for watching!
I never could bring myself to wear Crocs. I'm pretty sure this is the video that brought me to your channel!
Same here! Ol Chin, he's special tho! You ain't rockin, until you're crocin and sockin!
Chinstrap is a braver man than I in crocs. I couldn't... But awesome video. And a good one too, just elbow grease and hard work. Well done.
He's very fashionable!
17minute slam your C10 video... Really would have thought more views then 10k. To hell with the algorithm I still enjoyed it.
How much long was the shaft when you used the center hole?

Sounds nothing like the formula used in this video
Did you remove the springs to cut them?
Yes
