Ok so i got the new heater core in and am almost finished but i cant figure out where the metal s shaped brace that bolts to the firewall and goes over the heater box cover actually goes to. I mean I know it bolts to the firewall but thats as much as i can remember here is a link to a pic that shows the rod https://blazerforum.com/m_33134/tm.htmits the pic by moggy. I would greatly appreciate if someone would chime in and show me a pic of where the rod goes or tell me what it bolts to cause there is a welded nut at the bottom so it bolts somewhere. Again i would appreciate some help.

THANKS

 

Can someone please help me out here?

 

what year is it? i recently did this and i dont remember an s shaped bracket? where is it at?

 

its is a 96 and it bolts above and to the pass side of the plastic box the heater core sets in and at the top it is fork shaped and at the bottom there is a welded nut on the end and i cant quit figure out what it does or where it goes and i really need to get this figured out.

 

Has only like 2 people changed out the heater core in a 2nd gen blazer? I cant believe know one knows where the black brace goes.

 

does that brace mount on the firewall-as you have it(obviously one end or the other) and then(if I recall) doesn't the other end swing down and mount to the underside of the dash? If it can swing see if it would-a) swing(one end or the other mounted to the firewall and b) swing and end up in a position to mount to the underside of the dash. JP

 

I have tried but the end acts like it wants to dig into the heater core box and I know it cant go the other way. If you are very sure on this then I will look it over one more time. I really appreciate the reply.

Thanks
