Bought my tb back in the summer of 2014, and since then I spend my nights all over the Internet looking up ideas for mine. She's an 05 EXT i6 2WD, which I regretted almost immediately after. I didn't have an interest in in off roading until I bought it. I am a chevy guy with two dogs who loves adventures, thought it was perfect.

After a year plus of research, I honestly would just like to put a 2 inch lift (I believe is the minimum for 31s) mainly because I can't afford to do anything to crazy and I'm tired of people thinking I'm driving a minivan. Lol I have maintenance that has to be handled before I can get to the luxeries, but that's my short term goal, at least until I get a raise. End game goal would have to be an expedition build of some sort.

Never signed up to a forum before, so if I did this wrong, I am sorry. Lol

Thank you and can't wait to dive further in. This site has already been helpful to follow.

Welcome! I'm new to the site as well, and have been helped out tremendously from using the search feature(and general browsing).

Nice part about the trailblazer, parts are fairly inexpensive(at least vs. my previous vehicles).
