Today I finished reassembling the firewall on my 89 S15 Jimmy 2Dr, 2WD.. The front clip is removed and engine is out. The next step is to reinstall the engine.

 

Lookin good..

 

Double check all grounding straps around distributor area etc

 

Ground straps are installed, Back of right head to the wiring harness, Back of the left head to the firewall, From the battery to the engine, core support and the frame.

Looks Great, Good Job. Right now I have the engine installed, wire harness is connected to everything, Core support is in, Inner fenders have been blasted, painted and installed. I brought the fenders to the blaster yesterday. The blaster just called and said the fenders have been blasted. I have blasted all the fender mounting hardware and am in the process of priming and painting all the fender bolts and clips.

 

I saw ur question about when to wire the harness. Its easiest to install b4 engine and routing, clamps, etc.
sounds like a clean blazer r/r

 

Yes. I agree with installing the harness before the engine. Since I had the core support out, I installed the Y-Pipe and the starter on the engine before installation. But, during installation I ran into clearance issues with the engine mounts and had to remove the Y-Pipe and Starter. in order to get the engine installed. Luckily. I had a friend on hand to help guide the engine into the engine bay.

 

Nice! How much have you gotten crossed off the list?



Wonder how error is doing on his and his alpha...

 

Now would be a good time to slip an LS motor in that 2wd.. but i see its 2 late. Enjoy the freshness 4 sure
