I like it Ray only problem I think you might run into is cutting too short and not have any room for the rear shackle to operate. And it probably looks 1000x better on a lifted burb than a stock height one.

On closer look, the pic looks photochopped...

You can see a seam in the background image of the water/mud through the large window, and a slight seam on the quarter panel. Sorry to burst your bubble. :(

it's better then a long burb, but me personally I'd just get a 2 door blazer. I hate long crap, long beds, est. cabs etc.

another picture i found something different than just a sub


but i would cut the sub in the middle of the rear doors and a blazer in the middle of the doors then put the blazer rear on the sub
to keep the wheel well centered in the rear quarter not so long behind the wheel well
4 door blazer

Someone posted pics of a Removeable Blazer top on a Burb not long ago. It's white one. Blazer in the Rear, Burban up front. I'd rock it.

My by buddy has a 90 k5 jimmy. We're definitely converting it to 2wd, and there is talk of a modified burb roof for it...

Now THAT is the best blazer cap install I have seen. Very clean, and when painted to match, will look factory.
