First thing I did when I got the Trailblazer from my dad was to gut the audio equipment from my old 4Runner. I modded the sub box to hold 2 6X9's as well. Luckily, all the wiring from the 4Runner was long enough to be reused in the Trailblazer.

After that, I kinda sat on a pile of parts for awhile. Until I found a friend with a garage and lots of talent! We first put on MarkMc's 3in body lift.

Just before installing either lift, I bought an old set of Goodyear Territories (265/70/17LT) off of a guy on kijiji. Not long after getting the final lift installed, I got the Territories put on and thats how she sits today.
