98~05 Blazer brake upgrade! DONE!

Has anyone had any issues using the stock g-body brake hose? I did some research and the blazer brake hose is .25 inches longer than the g-body one. I'd imagine a quarter inch is no biggie, but would just like to hear.

been running mine for 4 months with the stock G-body lines

if you run the Blazer lines you will have to reflare the steel or get adapters

Sounds good. Mine is dropped a tad, so I'm sure it made up for the distance 😉
 
Got one side done, copied the O.P's color scheme cause it looked legit and had the same color paint laying around 8)

this was a used hub i pulled when i got the spindles, just with new studs installed

also used the blazer lower control arm bump stop, looks better than the gbody one and is made from stiffer material like energy suspension ones

Sounds good, thanks LG
 
Does anyone know if stock blazer dust shields work with the 13" c5 brake conversion?
what should I use to fill the ABS hole, sealant or just tack weld it closed?
Thanks

the HUB??

if you are talking about the hub you need to have the ABS sencer in it if you tack weld it closed you can get crap in the barrings and the hub will not last long!
