Ok and people want to know what it costs to run per a year lets say its pricey here are some basic numbers
to run a full summer of events
fuel minimum $1,500 or $2,259.87 for a summer mixing pump gas and race fuel this is just the blazer
fuel for the truck to pull the blazer was around $800
Parts just from last summer
$3,976.24
Tires alone minimum $1650.24 shipped for a good set of mud tires
then rims $850
total minus tires and rims is
$7,036.11
 
Time for rolled fenders and more ground clearance!

Upgraded your transfer case yet? what kind of gear reduction do you use for mudding?

fun looking rig though.
 
Believe it or not stock transfer case and axles still don't know how they are holding up lol
for gear reduction its 4:11 gears waiting to go in when the solid axle goes under it
thinking a set of dana 44s under it next winter or maybe some Rockwell 2.5 tons
 
and a little in cab action of it with the old motor will get outside video and inside video again this coming summer or maybe even winter if I take it out for snow runs

 
Love the rockwells. Always been curious how well the center brake assembly works, compared to one for each wheel. Dana 44s are easy, just go to a junk yard with a lot of jeeps.
 
I daily drove it for a long time tell I started thinking this mpg isn't so great time for something better now it sits inside a heated garage while the daily driver sits outside lol
