East German Blazer Rebuild and customizing
Today, I began with my front suspension rebuild.
I lifted the Blazer on some strong wooden planks for a good stand and removed the front wheels.
Then I made the, in my opinion, most f***ed up work on an 4x4 Chevy.
Removing off the Torsion Bars and Keys.
First I removed the torsion bar adjuster screws, pulled up the Key with my Unloader Tool to remove the adjuster nut and relesed the Keys.

Usually, now follows a really bad work. Pushing the Torsion Bars out of the Keys and the lower control arm.
So I tried how tight the torsion bar is in the control arm by shaking around on it and the torsion bar simply slides out of the control arm and the key.
The other side is just like th first side.
When we installed the lift kit we used much of grease on the torsion bar, but I thought it´s away after two years, but ist really useful.

Much thanks of my buddy Normen, he hasw an own shop for US-Cars in germany helped so much.
Tomorrow, I want to remove the steering knuckle and the parts around them.

Okay, after some days of work, I disessembled my complete front suspension.
Now I give away my Control Arm to press in new bushings, installed new seals on the steering knuckle, new tie rod ends, adjusting sleeves and primered my frame with Brunox Epoxy.
