Ordered an HID kit from xenondepot today.
I will get around to retrofitting projectors at some point. I just do not have the time and want more light.
4300k is the color temp I ordered, most usable light and looks normal.

 

Changed out the left front hub. Quiet bearings help bring the exhaust leak up in the mix....

 

Disabled the DRLs on the truck. Next up, HIDs.

 

I've owned nothing but Blazers so far, but I bought an 02 blazer and been getting everything fixed slowly, but here lately I've been having the service engine light blink when driving on the highway... Any ideas of why?

 

If you have a smart phone, pick up a bluethooth obd2 reader from amazon and get torque pro from the app store. under 20 bucks for both, Then you can get real time info on the code that is being thrown.

 

Blinking light means a catalytic-converter melting misfire - a severe misfire. Basically, raw fuel is burning in the cat, and WILL eventually damage it if you keep driving it.

All depends on where you live as to how big a deal this is. If you have to pass emissions, it will cost you big. Cats aren't cheap. If you don't have emission testing, I wouldn't worry about it, but you might have to gut the cat for the engine to breathe again, depending on how bad it's melted. If it hasn't been happening for too long, you might get lucky and be able to leave it be.

 

So get mine back from the shop New Intake gaskets, Valve Cover gaskets, EGR tube and since they cracked it taking the EGR line out the shop bought me a new intake. They also replaced my plug wire under warranty because they were being melted by my exhaust manifold. Well drive to work and go to lay in the tuck at lunch and I smell gas. F*@#K Gas is leaking from the top of the tank, half hoping it was just over filled when topping it off this morning but I'm guessing it is a line or a hole in the tank.

I'm about ready to drop kick this MF'n thing.

 

fixing is still cheaper than buying new. And eventually it will be new LOL

 

So,my new engine mount broke a few months ago. Im sick of these pos aftermarket rubber mounts. So i broke down and installed a energy suspension mount only for the driver side. Friend of mine put it in while i was at work. I like it.

Minimal vibrations
Instant throttle response since im not loosing torque from engine twist
and seemed like good quality.
For $45 bucks u cant go wrong.

 

Replaced the rear bumper and both plastic corners on my '96 Blazer with a 2001 bumper set. I had already installed a heavy duty receiver from a 2001, so the new bumper bolted right on to it. The corners of the 2001 were about a half inch longer than the 96 version, so I replaced both corners to match the new bumper.
