Are you referring to the clips holding the lines into the radiator? And the lines stayed in place for over three years without them? Wow!

Rust probably held them in place - that's a common "fastener" in MA ..

Not a good two weeks!

Stupid woman decided she wanted to be in my lane! Insurance company is totaling it with a quote of $5900 to repair. To ease my sadness I decided to spend a little money on the blazer so I bought this to get it running until I can find time to get back on my motor build.

Oh man, that REALLY sucks Rex

I'm hoping the little person wasn't present in the back seat when it happened and that everyone is okay!

5900?? Damn that is crazy. but I guess the support pillar between the doors is a goner. Glad everyone is okay, and you were able to order things for your Blazer.
