The truck wasn't starting again, no power to the fuel pump. Paul came over tonight and we basically wiggled the relay and it's running again.

We were even able to move it out of the garage under it's own power





We filled up the coolant, power steering and tranny fluid. Then we moved it out of the garage and did a calibrated eyeball front end alignment since the passenger side was so out of whack from the accident.

I had also recently did some work in the interior. I put the dash back together, installed a cd player I had lying around. Ran power for the drivers seat and installed it.

 

Gotta love the blazer brothers in the driveway (with the exception of the roof rack) & spit shine clean too!
WTG on getting it running (sort of) at least moving on it's own & coming along.
Is that a W.O.R.E. decal on the rear PS window on the front blazer?

Lol ooops it was a reflection of the vent on the garage I saw.
1st pic it reminded me of a wore decal.
(no math involved)

 

Lol thanks man. I was already thinking I'm going to have an awesome looking driveway when ever Paul comes over and the truck is done.

Ya that's just a reflection, but you can see the wore decal on Pauls (orange top middle of back window), and the little bit of white under Pauls hood is mine, and you can see the wore.ca decal on the side of mine just above the truck box in the second pic so we are representing lol.

There's still a lot of work to go before I can even wheel it with the ifs and 31's. Newest issue to look into is the transfer case isn't working at all. No lights whatsoever on the shifter switch. I guess my first check should be the fuse.

 

Found some more parts at the wreckers today. Got the headlights, fan shroud, turn signals and an extra 4x4 switch. Got home and installed them, so the engine bay should be completely put back together.

 

Too bad you dont live close to me. I have a spare windshield kicking around. Also have a buddy with a ZR2 S10 for sale for $300.

 

I got the tail lights all wired up on Friday and yesterday I scored a set of kijiji wheels. I thought for sure I'd have to be buying brand new ones so that was a nice unexpected cost savings.

17x9 D windows.

 

Hmmm If packed right, 5' x 3' skid or brace it vertically on high density foam... I could get that picked up & brought to Wpg for Jamaroon. But the purchase price & shipping might be = or more than 1 from a scrap yard. I can check it out even the ZR2 to Wpg. Jared knows my #.
Last thing I got from Logan were tires & rims... packing? lol pfff wtf for.
33's were sold to a farmer btw, he had a better use for them on a field (floatation) than I did on the road.
Just had a psychic moment. If he takes that "off road rig" & puts oooh say 39" tires on it. What gearing would he need for that 190 crank HP engine to turn them? 4:56 or so?! Of course he'd have a ECTED rear in it but still, that's more reason for gearing.

 

Id go at the very min 4.56... Turns my 35's without issue.

 

Picked up a grill for it a couple weeks ago, and a new box this last weekend. Also took it out of the garage and cleaned up the garage so I can park both dd's in there for the winter. So there won't really be anymore progress until spring again.

 

looking good so far
