-Possibly 3" BL
-Front Stinger
-Wet Okole seat covers

Depending on the $$ and time:
BlaZeR2:
2" Body lift
15x8 Streetlocks
32x11.5 BFG A/Ts
Fixing smashed rocker
Fixing dented exhaust tips
Long AAL for rear

The Hulk:
Either level the front or 4" lift all the way around
Bigger tires, would love 35"s
Steering box brace
Finally get brakes done and have it inspected
Rocksliders

Ill probably get the stuff for the Blazer first because i am gonna need new tires for it next year and its my DD. Cool

Future plans for the Z...

Ditch the Safari Bar
Get a Pre-runner bar and re-mount the PIAAs.
T-bar crank (alignment also)
GPS

but of course this all depends on if i get a job or not Sad

Oooh... GPS, that's a good one! Might have to look into those. It'd definitely be useful for the sled.

2" body lift
re-do my interior (floormats & seats)
31's
some exterior body work on the back bumper & hitch
CAI

possibly shackles & .75"-ish tbar crank depending on how the 31's fit with just the 2" body lift.

oh yeah and late next year i would like to do something with the exhaust

My plans are to get my frist gen going this winter. Then I'm think about maybe doing a BL and some 33s. A hidden winch would be nice to. Very Happy

Id like to get some sliders, off road lights and 33's for the Z.

For my 82 Chevy Id like to finish rebuilding the motor (currently 3/4 tore down) and get it back in to start my restoration on it.

Unfortunately everything depends on whether or not the money is there to do it.

My plans start the same as ytou all....

First I gotta rob a bank...

I really want a set of sliders.
But first I gotta get this winch mounted behind the front bumper.
And I gotta fab up a rear hitch/shackle behind the rollpan.

Still considering a rack for the spare tire.

I need an audio upgrade.

And... most important of all... and most likely to actually happen....
NEW Arizona stripes on the paint!

Ohhhh boy I have SO much planned. How much actually ends up getting done is a complete different story. Laughing

LOL

Lets see this is going to be an essay practically.

- Tint
- Exhaust
- March Pullies
- AEM Brute Force
- Wheel Spacers
- New Tires
- Streetlocks
- EFILive
- Reverse Lights
- More Fog and Driving Lights (Hopefully a few sets mounted on roof and some on the mirrors/hood hinge area)
- Trimming
- Sliders
- Shackles
- AAL's
- Hopefully make a sweet bumper
- B&M Shift Plus
- Bunch of stuff to run and pull cooler
----- E-Fans
----- B&M Trans Cooler
----- Trans Temp Gauge
----- Maybe Deeper Trans Pan
- Either Rear Diff Guard or new cover (looks like Mag-Hytec)
- Hoping to get a Detroit Locker in there
- Exide Orbital Battery
- Headers
- Reciever tubes
- Goodmark Gen 2 Hood
- Definately gonna do another audio upgrade
----- Infinity Kappa Components Front and Rear
----- Infinity Amp to power them
----- Probablly gonna buy my friends Brand New 12" JL Audio W6's and 1000/1 JL amp for power
----- Dynamat and lots of it
----- Gonna have to get a bigger alternator for those too
- Paint my Dash and Door Handle surrounds - thinking spectra gray as red would look to ricer like
- Line-X Flares, Rockers?, and Bumpers

whatever I could go on and on and on. Im hoping to knock a good chuck of that off. I have a lot of "Preventative Maintenance" to do too - Like BJ's, Wheel Bearings, Brakes, Plugs and Wires, etc.

Honestly I dont know how much I will actually get done - it sucks being a College Student and having no $$. I also kinda want to buy a little Regular cab S-10 with the 4.3 and a 5-Speed so I gotta save for that. If I could find an Xtreme that would be cool - even a Blazer Xtreme.I want to run around to and from work and then school in that - better gas mileage less miles put on the Z, and then I dont have to worry about the Z being parked around campus. So I guess we will see what happens

kevin if you are trying to find a 2wd drive or blazer you should look at getting the 4-banger.. a little better gas mileage than the 4.3.. plus if its just a run around town kind of thing you shouldn't have to worry too much about the added power of a 4.3

Well i'll be hitting the big 100K pretty soon, so a tune-up is on the list for the Z.

But i'd like to get:
-32" Maxxis Bighorns
-Prerunner Bar
-Tint
-Stereo

Oh yeah, and sell my stock PA3's to get some cash.

Well I can cross the Pullies off the list, those came in the other day. Now I just need to rob a bank (or quit going to school Laughing

) and I can do the other stuff.

New tires will be reallly soon in the spring I decided. I want them for my road trip to Daytona for spring break. And Rims too. I did a little photoshopping (not good by any means) of the rims and the ideas. Tell me what you guys think.

They are the Streetlocks that Justin sells right here! The First one is the rims just like you get them.

Second one is what I am also thinking about. Taking the bolts on the outside edge off and either having them powdercoated (friends dad will do it cheap as hell or probablly free, anodized, or just painted to match my truck.

Sooo what do you all like??

GotZR2? · Joined: 23 Mar 2007 Posts: 23 2003 Chevrolet S10

i think you should hold out and get some ZR5 rims personally.. i love mine

Jigg · Posted: Wed Dec 12, 2007 3:19 pm Post subject:

I like 'em Kevin. Pretty good chop too!

I think the red goes well with your blacked out theme too.

Definatly go with the red, Kevin. Looks great that way. Cool

Fix both inner CV boots(You sell these Justin?) that have started to leak since i cranked the t-bars 2 weeks ago!
Fix the leaking drivers side axle seal.

Those are the highest priority and need to be done here sometime quick.

As far as mods there is quite a few but it all depends on funding.
