Wow it's looking awesome. That color of ZR2 looks great!! I like those tails too. I never did see those ones as I was hunting for tails. Definitely would have considered them.

Good thing you got those headlights aligned. If that's how bad they were at 20ft I would have hated to see em' at 100.

Blew the brake line going to the rear brakes Saturday and replaced it. Right rear bleeder was clogged solid, had to use an air drill to clean it out. Now I just gotta find some money to replace the brakes.

I loved my old 92 sonoma and when it came time to sell it I was kind of sad. When i started looking at a blazer/Jimmy everyone told me "dont get one of those you will spend more money fixing it than you spent on the entire truck!!" But I gave my jimmy a chance and since I purchased it in october i have had no porblems, and if you have seen any of my off road vids you know that it gets put threw its paces.

Thanks!! yeah those tails JUST came out! but i wasnt happy with the customer service or the product at first(had a lot of problems with wiring), they were HORRIBLE!! they asked for my number so they could call me, We'll see if they ever do.

But yeah I'm in love with my Blazer for sure! And yeah headlights were CRAZY!!! lol

I'm never done with upgrading, and i have a few things up my sleeve, just waiting for summer.

Let's see. last two weeks have been busy. new ball joints. I hate rivets BTW. New right hub. New manifold back exhaust. That was fun too. This weekend is front brakes, oil change, and an alignment. A quiet blazer that drives straight will be more than I can bare.

finally got around to doing the alignment of my right HL tonight. on the way home from working on my friend's '03 Silverado, i thought, "what the hell!" as i exited the highway. stopped on a nice dark ramp (far onto the shoulder) and gave her a quick twist.

now my bright bulbs aren't shining into the back of the passenger's head in front of me. can't wait to get my HID kit from oktain.

Default finished front doors window / handle / locks

I purchased the truck they didn't have the keys for the door locks. The driver side window motor was dead and the door handle on the passenger side was broken. So I already did the window motor. But got the door handle, and locks replaced. Now I can lock it up tight.

Nice on the bed liner.

Tomorrow front brakes, oil and hopefully an alignment. Then door pins. I hate these sagging doors.
