what have you gotten done on your blazer today?
Replaced the radiator and made a video of it
1998 V6 Vortec, the plastic finally cracked so I Jb welded it for a few weeks till I had time to finally replace it. I was using this 3rd car while I was rebuilding the engine in my pickup.
Anyways oddly enough I didn't take any pics but I did manage to video the process so if anyone is interested they can see it on my YouTube video channel or go to this link below, hopefully somebody can get some good pointers off of it. and you can get a cheap one at rockauto.com for about $65 bucks, that's where I got mine.

I'm doing the brakes on the truck today. Have been for the past 3 hours. The front passenger caliper bolts are rusted on there crazy hard! I've done the driver caliper and just punched myself in the face trying to get a spring on the rear passenger drums.
I had the joy of trying to get my back glass open.
None of the tips on here worked. I had to unbolt the handle. I was a PITA. So for now I can't secure my vehicle. But at least I was able to finally install the missing glass support. Any would-be thieves will appreciate it.
BTW, it's a 2002 blazer ls.

Did rear backing plates and all new parking brake parts. Bought the ACDelco parking brake kit that included all new parts including parking shoes and new adjuster screws and rubber boots from Amazon. Didn't have time this weekend to finish but still have to get new rotors and pads. Will definitely relube caliper sliding pins. Luckily none were frozen up.
Popular size
I tried finding a set of those used and they are as rare as chicken teeth. I run those on my 78 T-Bird and 79 T-Camper. (T-Camper = a Thunderbird that still looks like a car but has been converted into a tow behind camper.)
I'll be looking for an affordable set for my son's 85 4x4 S10 Blazer fairly soon now that 'Old Blue' is finally alive again.

Sounds Familar
I said, "Great, I've got brakes to do."
He was so sure it was only rocks that I made a bet with him. Naturally he lost and had to buy lunch.
Advice of the day - P.B. Blaster and a day to soak.

After unlocking it I found the back glass wouldn't lift more than 3 or 4 inches. It turned out that the shock on the driver's side was frozen. After unhooking it the glass opens fine.
Just call me 'Lucky'
