How Crazy Are Blazer Owners?
I just washed my Jimmy and its 29* outside, I was fighting the water from freezing to my truck the whole time, Also Just did the pitmen arm and a tune up and it was snowing a bit outside...
|
I dont know how crazy that is. But i paid 300 bucks for a not running blazer a fee years back, got it going for a couple hundred, drove it for a couple months, moved back to alberta, sunk about 5 grand into a blazer thats been sitting in my garage ever since... Thats crazy according to my friends
|
I replaced the flex plate in my '93 Jimmy last December in the freezing cold. That motivated me to buy insulated coveralls.
|
I have a whol carhart overall/jacket that is all insulated and water proof. so I dont really notice the cold, but I need some good work gloves, had a radiator leak one winter, was like -3 out, pointer finger froze to the hose clamp, had to rip it off

Thats crazt alright. Anyone that can own a blazer and keep fighting with them issue after issue and working on one for several months to over a year to try and get it going is crazy in my book. |
Well most of my friends think I'm nuts because of how much money I have spent on my blazer and I still have such a long ways to go to do what I want with it...

Im about 2/3rds of the way done give or take some. |
call me CRAZY, the only things I have not done are the bottom end of the engine,fuel pump,heater core front diff, all the money and time I spent could have bought a new one but I could not call it mine.... I love that damn blazer....
|
I dropped my gas tank in -5 weather 2 years ago... lol
|
im about to have to shell out money for: new headlights and ambers. pretty much complete replacement,fuel pump so i can read my gas gauge, and there is a ticking noise when i turn on AC/heat, sure im going to have to shell out money for that as well.
on the crazy note I drifted and did donuts in the parking lot outside of my local gamestop when i grabbed halo 4....didnt know what came over me, enjoyed it though ;) |
Dropped almost $5000 just to put 35s on my blazer...
|
Mine is just my winter vehicle...but I want to mod it so bad!!!
Already bought HID's for it... |
i spent 7 hours under my 91' on new years day trying to get it running which i did. My fiancé hates it. im dumping money into it now because i know she wont let me once we are married haha.
|
im a glutton for punishment, i keep getting s10 blazers, and they always need work.
|
hahaha lucky me for having a wonderful girlfriend that does not mind me spending money or time on the jimmy, because its hers too. And helps me work on it, if its not too cold out.

I never use my A/C in the summer, the inside of my blazer gets to be about 150 or more when you get into it, especially if you forget to put up the sunscreen to block out the heat. I just roll down the windows and its a nice 100 instead.

which one comes first?
For three years in a row, I replaced the fuel pump, once the fuel pump relay at the same time, In the middle of the trip out on an anniversary date with my Lady.

put a quick disconnect for my sway bars on yesterday in 2 degree weather with a wind gust of 20mph........
|
I look at mine everyday thinking "why do i keep dumping money in this pos?" and yet the next min im on s10v8 looking at swaps that i wanna do to it.
|
wonder how that v8 swap would feel taking off.. i dont think the 5.7 is much more powerful tho.
