That's a great looking truck for sure...well done!!
I did a 69 Blazer without the top.
Where did you get the rear tail lights?
That's something I'd like to add to mine.

Thats a great looking Blazer. I just recently picked up an Axial Deadbolt with a 69 K5 blazer body. I ordered a new 69 Blazer body. I'm still deciding on color. I'd like to find the hardtop but guess they are disco'd and I've been unable to locate one. Any suggestions?

Also how did you get the Traxxas rally center caps to mount to your axle?

Thanks. I think this is my favorite trail truck build.

The tail lights and side markers are from Traxxas.

As for the center caps: ya know, it's been so long I can't recall exactly.

I completely forgot about it until I read your post but now that you mention it, I do recall having to do something special to mount them to the axles. I'll dig this one out of storage and have a look and report back.

thanks again.

No rush just curious is all. I mounted my stock Bkazer wheels on my scx10 and liked the look. I know the Trx4 have longer axle stub shafts that the caps screw onto.

I also finally located a hardtop for my Blazer body. 300 miles away at my buddies LHS. Paid for it just gotta wait for him to ship it to me.

I solved this problem buy cutting off one lug nut and drilling a hole for a 2mm screw.

Won't fall off either. ;)

I had considered this but I’d want to do all 6 lugs and that would just take too long. Already got to deal with that on my new Scx6.
