My New Z
Saturday, January 20, 2007 8:10 PM
ZR2 that is....have had it a week or two now, but the weather has been the @!#$s....so today it was nice out so washed and waxed it and snapped a coupe quick pics (taken with my phone...crap quality i know) So nice not having to worry about scraping everywhere I go.
Its an 03 Blazer ZR2, onlyhas 30k kms on it, an older guy had it and its been stored for the last while and decided to let it go, and lets just say I got a wicked deal on it! So far I ordered clear corner lights, a 2" Body Lift, new headlight bulbs, and the list is quickly growing.

Very nice, its real clean. I have never been a fan of 2 door SUV's though. I always figured if i'd get an SUV I might as well get a 4-door. For family/friends reason. I mean you're already driving a bigger vehicle. Even though its a small vehicle. Plus it just seems so natural for a SUV to be a 4-door, lol.

Its not mine though and it is VERY clean. Also low miles. Looks good. Post up more pics once you get the lift and other goodies.

Yeah thats the only thing I kinda wish it had was 4 drs. But for the price I got it for and my lifestyle this completely suits my needs and me. Plus the ZR2 option is only for the 2dr models, so kinda makes me like it more....i just can't wait to play a little!

^^^ Figured you'd chime in sooner or later! Yeah I'm thinking after the body lift & shackles go in 33's will be going on, not sure if it'll be BFG MT's or AT KO's...but the BFG LongTrails are most def going! Just have to save up the cash!

Sometimes 33's are hard to fit on a lazer with a 2" BL. It's hit or miss.

Yeah I was just taling to a buddy that works at a tire shop...he said best bet & fit will be a nice set of 32"'s so I think thats what I'm going with. He said 33's dont leave a lot of room for turning and flex....said i'll destroy my fender flares offroad....either way can't wait!

Ughhh.. ZR2.. Another stupid case of dealer badging.. Did you happen to see some ZR cavaliers beside it too? There was some here a couple of years ago.. Don't get me wrong, it's a nice SUV.. But get rid of the stupid ZR2 badges asap.

^^^ Are you serious? Have you ever actually looked at a ZR2 next to a regular?? ZR2 has many changes man, and ones that came from the factory not the dealer....between the locking rear end, skit plates, wider stance (by 1, nealry 3" difference in height and 31" tires. Hardly a "dealer package" like the Z22 up here in Canada.

Do some research before you make a generalized comment like that man....Taken from LASH's member page cause it states it perfectly

"The difference between an regular S-10/Blazer and a ZR-2: RPO ZR2 only full ladder-type frame with modified suspension mounting points which provide: 100mm wider track (3.9 inches wider than regular S-10). Three-inch suspension height increase. Enhanced front (7.25" ring gear) and rear (8.5" ring gear) axles w/ 3.73:1 rear-axle ratio. Larger wheel and axle bearings. 31 x 10.5R-15 LT/C black wall off-road tires (BFG A/Ts on pickups and BFG Long Trails on BlaZeR2). 46mm gas pressurized Bilstein Monotube shocks. Rear axle track bar (pickups) / rear sway bar (BlaZeR2). Wheel flares (black on S-10 pickups and BlaZeR2 / body-color on Sonoma pickups). 33mm (early model) / 28mm (late model) front anti-sway bar. Skid plates."



Heather - I got em off eBay, but th efit was AWESOME, and they aren't filling with condensation at all. CLEAR CORNERS Super fast shipping to me in Canada, I think it took 3-4 days.
