Congrats, man! Your freezer must be packed.

I had my trailer with me but it didn't have the clearance to get to where I pulled the elk out. And the freezer will be full tomorrow as that is when my wife and I will do the butchering. I have also learned, yet knew better, than to go elk hunting alone. I had no choice this year and the freezer was bare. If I find myself in that situation again, I will beg, plead and bribe anyone within 100 miles for help.

Had my Rigid Industries lightbar put on. Had custom switches for it put in because unfortunately the fog light switch I had bought from Jensen shorted out. Had my skid plates put on. Differential and transmission torn apart and serviced (I swear to god this truck drives like new now) and a Curt trailer hitch put in. All in all, I'm very happy where my Blazer is at now and can't wait to hit trails in New Mexico when I move.

I installed my new/used driver's window. The power window hasn't worked for a few years so I bought a whole driver's door. Swapped out the window and manual window regulator.



I want to give Christine208 a huge thank you! Thanks for the pdf! With that info I pulled off the swap in under 2 hours. That includes stripping the donor door and install into mine and having it all working.

Lol yes Don all the other windows are still power. The guy I bought the donor door from had a couple power window ones but didn't know if they worked. So instead of taking a chance I went with the manual that I knew would work. The guy has 10 1998-2001 s10 and blazers he is parting out so I gave him my number and told him I would be back. He has 2 zr2s that have good flares that I want.
