Thanks, guys I appreciate it!

Its been a while... but I have made progress.

So the first thing I want to document is the difference between different 95 ignition systems.




Purge solid switch



Not sure what this thing is but the other 95 blazer did not have one.



Crank Shaft sensor and reluctor gear



Harmonic balancer is different to.

and the distributor, distributor cap, and rotor are all different.

Who would have thought and thanks to GM for changing in mid-year also I would like to thank California for that BS emission differences was a pain at times. But what fun would it be without a challenge?

The wife likes these pinstripes so I took some pictures to later match and find these since she likes that style. I would like to know if these are factory I cant remember if they was or not.

Took the doors off and replaced the pins and bushing. I also degressed the the door jams hings etc. Starting to think about painting so while the door was off time to clean her up.







Also after 20 years of using a punch and hammer to install the door pins and bushing, I finally installed these the professional way. How could I have overlooked this method for so many years? Yeah, Im kicking my self in the butt wtf was I think....







Use a 1/4-20 bolt and press the bushings in.

Heres a nice shot of inner fenders on and accessories bolted on. Im pretty impressed with the 25.00 inner fenders. The only extra holes I had to drill was the 4x4 actuator. Everything else lined up.

Painted inside the fenders where the inner fender overlaps before installing. I also did the inside of the rear bumper.

Corrosealed the bottom of door. Im not going to paint the jams, the places I need to add color and clear I will use the airbrush to save on materials and masking, and time.
