simple k5 build

[cjtrucking]

started off with a 85 k5 blazer with a 4in lift and 35s, stock 350, turbo 350 trans, and a 208 tcase. stock dana 44 and 12 bolt rear with 3.55 gears.
at first just welded the spiders, took the bumpers off and made some tube bumpers and took it easy four wheeling


Then we got some tmi weld on beadlocks, 38.5 and made a roll cage for it and ram assist

Did a little grooving on the tires




Then decided to junk the 44 and 12 bolt, and put a 14bolt, and chevy 60 under it, 5.13 gears, spool front and rear, and solid diff covers, still leaf spring front and rear, but did stretch it a couple inches.





Then 42.5 sticky boggers on 17 racelines




That's all we have done so far, hopefully have it all buttoned up this week and out wheeling next weekend.

Love me a K5. Other than the exo cage it looks great. They don't climb that great but damn they are fun to booze cruise in with a bunch of buddies and/or females
