1985 Chevy 4x4 K5 Blazer that belongs to my friend! Has a NEW 6" Lift with new wheels and tires!

My buddy has put a lot of time and money into this Blazer!

The tailgates on those Chevy K5 Blazers & GMC Jimmys are a lot heavier than the ones on the pickups & those removable tops are also heavy. I'm sure K5 Blazers, Jimmys, & Suburbans are heavier than the half ton pickups since they have longer bodies unlike the pickups where they have 2 shorter separate bodies "cab & pickup box."

Yes those tops are heavy! You have some good info! I really appreciate your comment!

My cousin has a 2wd blazer that he had restored about 2 years ago . 2wd blazers are hard too find around here anyway

[@manonabudget8808]

Oh yes they are hard to find anywhere nowadays! I sure would love to have one someday! I really appreciate your comment! Thanks!

[@darrelldyer6681]

I’d like to have that in my collection. 👍

[@manonabudget8808]

Me too! But he won't sell it! Lol. I don't blame him though! I appreciate your comment buddy!

@@manonabudget8808 & the only way a Chevy or GMC buyer could get a bigger cab on a fullsize pickup back then was to buy a crew cab which were only on 3/4 ton & 1 ton models & only came with the 8ft fleetside boxes since they didn't offer extended cabs on the 3rd generation C/K series pickups.
