Traiblazer SS Drivetrain in an F-body?

I was just looking for LSX parts and equip on ebay, and then i stumbled on a LS2 AWD Trailblazer SS drivetrain. Does anybody think this is feasible swap? I Know custom shafts could prob be made up for the front end of the car and an off roading shop. The only HUGE problems I could forsee would be clearance issues. Any body attempted this?

The conversion would be slightly less work than putting it in your Soobie.

If you were to put that drivetrain into an s-10, you'd have a super sleeper, and it would probably give your bird a run for its money.

Considering the wheelbase or track width isn't the same, a bit of modifications would be required.

With enough time and money, any kind of swap is possible.

custom length driveshaft & axles takes car of that

the real hard part would be fitting everything, you would probably have a very nice hack job on your hands by the time you were done, either that or do it the super hack way and just keep lifting the car until it fits.
