Well I decided I might as well just get a new radiator, I got my old one out with no problems other than one transmission line.


I also got a new lower fan shroud because my old one was broke and in the winter the fan would hit it and make a really annoying noise, as I was putting my new one in I managed to break the radiator baffle... Now I have to wait untill friday to get the new one.

As I wait for the part I am going to be fixing all the rust spots, I will have pics up tomorrow.

 

I sanded down all the rust spots on my fenders and painted them.


Here is a spot on the rear fender that was really annoying me.(Before I sanded it)


Its not the best paint job but its better than staring at rust.

 

I really like the tread pattern on those tires.

 

Yeah I like them to, I got them for $600 and there winter rated too.

 

So I got my new radiator in today.


Looks much better then the old one, I hope this one lasts as long as the other one.


And here is everything back together, I took it for a quick drive and noticed the top transmission cooler line was leaking so I made sure it was tight and I hope nothing else leaks.

 

I went to a scrap yard today and got this bush guard, I know they don't make one for 95's so I will try to make some mounts for this one to fit. I just don't know what to do with the mounts that go in the grille. For $75 its not that bad.


I just put my old lights on it for fun but If I get it on I might paint it black to match my jimmy, not sure yet.

 

Looking good

 

Thanks, your blazer looks very nice also.

Well today I started my jimmy and I heard a loud noise from under the hood, so I got the hood up and I used a stethoscope to listen around and it sounds like the noise is coming from the ac compressor... It makes a very loud grinding noise and a squeal, I though it was the water pump at first but it sounds like its coming from the compressor so I guess I will have to replace that. Or remove it an get a smaller belt if that's possible on a jimmy because my a/c has never worked anyways.

 

Today I got a led light to replace my old dome light.


It came with some extra adapters but I only needed the one that looked like the old light.



Here is the led where the old light was.



And here is it turned on. Its way brighter then the old light and it should come in handy at night.

 

Today I worked on my brush guard a bit and sprayed some bed liner on the lower sides of the truck and the fenders.



Here is a close up on the fenders, It covers up the scratches and there I sanded down the rust so i'm happy with it.



I hope I will get the brush guard on by this week all I have to do now is make the mounts.
