    Well there isn't any poke really at all.

    I think you're doing it right though, it looks good!

    its weird cause of the way the rear is shaped and it has such a "taper" toward the bottom, it sits nice at the top of the fender but toward the bottom it sticks out.

    a few people said i should have went with a smaller spacer in the rear...

    no, it flows well with the body lines from the top. If it didnt poke out on the bottom it would look awkward

    think about how it looked for the past week with the rear wheels sunk in 2 inches from where they are now

    so there are other people with S-10 blazers lol j/k. but if thats as low as your going with it, it looks awesome but if your planning on going lower or putting bags on it then you may want them in a little more. oh and as always "pic's look great".

    I think it looks good. That taper isn't bad at all. Just take a look at my sig and be thankful for what you got to work with, lolol. Just think of every car that has posted in the pic forum that has to run rediculous camber to bring the top of the tire back under the fender and to be able to turn. (Not to mention the rediculous stretch too). This is by far the best result of a "fitment" thread I've seen on here.

    It looks good.
    When most people say flush around these parts it typically means poorly fitting and/or improper tire sizes with a good chance of retarded negative camber. Your truck has none of the above symptoms.
    Well done.

    Ditch the spare and the side molding and bumber and put sierra chrome moldings on it and paint your calipers and leafs black and anything else that is showing thats rusty.

    Do not "beaner" it out and "pop" those wheels. It's on it's way to being a nice truck, keep it up.

    ^^^holy long post chadbee, bag that shit, the 4.3 is the shit. you could probably bag it and swap it for not much more than 3,000. bags for 1,000 and that leaves 2,000 for the swap, sounds doable if you do it all yourself

    not doable for me right now maybe next summer i will atleast be able to do a 5.3 swap. yeah the 4.3 is an amazing motor, im a huge fan of it but sometimes the truck is too damn sluggish when it comes to getting out in traffic and whatnot. i would get alot better gas mileage as well because the 4.3 is straining to pull the truck, i could tell a difference in gas mileage and the peppy-ness of it after the heavy ass rims
