just bought a new jeep also
hey guys!
i built a 86 k5 with a 12" lift and 39.5" boggers, i had a welded rear and arb in front, 350 tbi with 700r4. removeable pinned doors, full rhino lined body inside and out. and all kinds of other goodies.
i loved it was great in the mud and the chicks loved it haha but i got a job 20 miles form home and needed something a little more street worthy and better than 4mpg downhill haha. so i sold it for 5,500$ and bought a 99 cherokee classic for 4000$ with 80k miles on the 4.0 straight 6 and in beautiful condition(owned by grandpa) and put like 1,500 into the 3" lift and brand new 31" swampers tsl's. and the only thing i need now is a locker, which im getting tomarrow but i already think its a better rig than the blazer lol!!! its great on the highway and smooth like a cadillac on trails and goes through mud good. plus i LOVE havign AC in the jeep haha i also put a sony stereo and all pioneer speakers in it.
here are some pics of teh old blazer that i now dont miss at all!! i will add pics of my jeep tomarrow when i take some!
