street grater kit

go to www.ridetech.com and click the S-10 road grater kit.. i don't know if it'll fit a blazer... but if not i'm sure they got something... i read an article in truckin' and there is no welding invloved. the majority of the install is bolt-on... and it lays rails nonetheless. good luck...

To lay frame should be pretty easy. But if you plan to drag you'll probably have to do some shifting of the gas tank so you don't tear it(not too positive about this but I know this is a huge problem on most trucks). You'll also have to c-notch the frame as well, not to mention the front fender wells depending on the size of wheels your run.

There is no bed on a blazer. And DO NOT, I REPEAT DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM AIM INDUSTRIES. They are horrible quality and have a horrible reputation. VIAR compressors are the best IMO, but Thomas are not bad either, but I've heard they have a tendancy to get real hot. I suggest talking to reputable custom truck/car shops in your area. Also check out Custom Truck Forums , I just joined there, and there seems to be a lot of very knowledgeable people there. You really shouldn't have to do any cutting to the floor above the axle unless you do a body drop. If I get a chance I'll do a little more research for you.

the road grater doesn't fit the blazer. the frame is slightly different.
you'd need a custom fourlink.
if you're doing it custom, you decide how low it sits.

tony at ridetech.com is a genius, and can get you an answer you're looking for

Haven't read too much about BlowJax but the name just sounds cheap. When your gonna do something as extreme and expensive as bagging, its better to go for the best equipment that has a really good reputation. More often then not bag wise you get what you pay for. By the way OffAxis, are you going to bag it yourself or someone else is going to?

Yep, He is right, the roadgrater kit is a little bit differant. But I suggest if you have the money, and a s10 p/u, and dont want to do much modifying to buy the roadgrater kit, it is an expensive kit, but its well worth it. There are many places you can get a kit for your blazer from. It all depends on how much you want to cut. Blazers are BASICALLY the same as p/u, only they have no bed like he said. But When we did a blazer X, we got it to lay frame with our bag kit, It had a custom made 4link, and that is only because the guy did not want to run a MONOLEAF anymore, but we had to cut into the floor of the blazer in back, but we made a cover to fit over everything becuase he had a booming stereo. And i also agree, Viair's are an awesome compressor. I believe that BLOWJAX is a small branch of AIM, just like Ricky Racer, I have only went through aim 1 time, and that is when I ordered Spindles, and they were the wrong ones, So i sold them! Now I mostly use Beltech or DJM suspension. If you have any more questions, Keep askin, or e-mail me!

Later bud,
