Hola!!! My name is Chris I hail from the Buckeye State aka Ohio!!! I own a 2003 TB 4x4 ext.I am glad I finally found a forum where I can ask questions or give answers. I will post pictures of it when I get the chance. I picked up my TB about 3 months ago. We use to own a 1978 Blazer many moons ago. So Me and Tiffani My partner in crime are happy to be back in the Blazer family once again!! :excited:

I'm reading about lifts and looking at your charts as of now. A lift of some degree is a must being a TB ext. High centering a vehical is no fun. Was thinking no less then 3" also looking in to more durable bumpers and/ or guard bars. I plan on doing moderate off roading. I want to just hang out for now and read up the forums before I post to many questions.

I do have a few questions however let Me read up more to see if they can be answered in the threads. Also thanks for the welcome.

I do not work for the Rail Road but I am a railfan. So getting to those spots to get good shots/pics of trains at times requires the right vehical.So wanting to get that special picture is the perfect excuse to enjoy my other hobby offroading!!! I'm in Marion,Ohio to be exact.

However the first thing I need to take care of is My instrument panel. It has decided to have a mind of it's own. :wallbash: So before I can go after the 3inch lift that must be taken of first. ugh...

Yeah, mine has that issue too. The only gauge that is consistent is the fuel level so I just left it as is for now

I thought the same thing till my fuel guage decided to have a mind of it's own as well. I would suggest fixing yours as well. Not only is it annoying but not knowing gas level, speed, rpm and so on can be a safety issue.
