In the last week I have put in new gaskets and seals in the manifold and valve covers and upper manifold and put in a brand new fuel injection spider and a new oil pressure sending unit and new distributor and cap and rotor new spark plugs and wires new blacked out taillights new water pump and a new power brake booster and new abs wheel speed sensors for front left and right and added a new abs control module. And ive blacked out the chevy logos and Blazer logos. Ive also added 2 15 inch subwoofer and infinity mids and highs and a headunit with dvd player and 2 punch amps 1 running my subs and the other running my mids and highs, ive also blacked out the front chrome piece that goes across the front grill. And i stripped the paint from my luggage rack and redid it with bedliner spray and looks awesome. I've still got more I'll be doing next week.

Took my wheel spacers off... The stance would look alright if I were running larger tires, but with the tires on it now it just looked too wide... Took 1.25" inches away from width on either side, she actually looks a little taller now :P As an added bonus, my 55+mph vibration went away. Who knew?!?!

Did nothing to it today. But found out the front driver wheel bearing is bad.
Thankfully its 2wd and the hubs/bearing assembly is not expensive. Also outer tie rod on passenger side has a little play. I will worry about that when its warmer

I've done nothing to it in a couple of months. :-(
Still sitting after the tranny started to slip, so I parked it. About to pull it into the garage next week to drop the transmission for a rebuild. Not sure how bad it is, but the fluid is darker than a politicians soul. Already have a new billet dizzy for it, so I will do lower intake gaskets, new spider assembly, new dizzy & the trans all at the same time. Just in time for Spring.

Default Hinge Pins

With the help of my Brother in law in his shop I replaced the hinge pins on the driver side front door. The 3 inches or so of sag is now gone and it closes much better and no whistling noise when I drive.

Washed it! She needed it... I felt bad... The front wheels were almost black from brake dust...
