General Chat Chat about all things Blazer (and related vehicles). Off-topic stuff should be in the lounge, and all mechanical problems should be posted in the proper forum.

I will never do that again.

You haven't been 4 wheeling if you've never been stuck! lol WTG on getting it out & keeping the front tires straight (when you can) almost always makes it easier. As well as leveling the ruts at all the tires, not just the drive wheel/s.

Well, i just realized, as i was getting pulled back, on my way down the hill, i hit a huge stump/log thing that was cut, and it dented up the bottom of the driver side door pretty good. My door has to be slammed shut, and i have to shove the door to get out, any ideas how to fix this?



and this is where my door is scraping

Put a piece of wood on the rocker and hit it with a heavy hammer. The wood will keep you from putting dents in the metal and will just move it down as a whole.

After that, replace your door hinge pins & bushings.

Yes, a nice 2x4 cut to length should do the trick, use a short handled sledge hammer if you have one.
