"this may take a while" Tre5 Customs 72 Blazer Roadster

I had to change it up a bit. I am going to do 4 seats, so I changed the frame and link setup to allow for about 20" of the factory floor (measured from the rise behind the front seats) to stay intact. I am also planning on mounting the bags on top of the axle, so I made the bars a bit more parrallel to get rid of some of the pinion change. It now has 3 degrees of movement throughout 10" of travel. I made the bars as long as I could to cut down on forward swing, but I am still getting about 1/2" with this setup.Here's a pic of the frame layed on top of the factory dimensions. I have the body mounts 2" lower than factory for a 2" "stock floor" body drop. I can always adjust them to make it right (and keep the front tires off the hood).

why bags????thats dissapointing..gonna be tight regardless..be way cooler as a bodied juiced chevy roadster then a bagged one..theres all kinds...least we know itll be badass regardless

Cant wait to see this unfold, I thought you were anti-bags.
regardless I still think you have what it take to make this a cover page roadster!
Good Luck!

BTW
What software did you use for the suspension drawing?

man thats just enuff pix and info to get me hooked on this build..... on with the build i cant wait to see it finished

where did you get the frame schematic and can you get them for any make and model?

I used AutoCAD to draw up the frame. I found the scematic by searching on google. It came from the 67-72chevy forum. Someone had posted it there. I just imported it into CAD and scaled it to size.

dropped the truck off at the blaster today! Hopefully it doesn't come back too bad.

is the top for sale?
