So I ordered an ABS air dam for my brother's '94 S10 Blazer and since he hasn't picked it up I installed it on my '85. It is a 3 or 4 inches too narrow, but if you spread the ends apart it will fit reasonable well. I kinda like it.

Super easy to install. It has a flange around the top and I just used some self tappers into the bottom of the bumper.

Now I just need to cut a coil or two and it will look pretty good.

Yes, I used 6mm spacers front and rear.

I finally got my lift installed in my back yard and am swapping the tranny, which was flaring badly in 3rd and 4th.

I need a lift in my back yard also! But how do you keep the weather elements and airborne dust off it?

Gota love Mercedes Diesels!

You don't. It will weather and not last as long as an indoor lift, but with the Chinese lifts being so cheap, $1600 delivered, I figured it would be worth it.

Even if it only last 5 years I feel it will be a very worthwhile investment.

Looks pretty darn good! I wonder if an early dodge dakota air dam would work even better?

The are a little wider than the S10.
