Nice work on the antenna bracket. Just looking at it with the tail light installed and the hatch closed, you don't realize how much work actually went into it.

When you drive an S10 Blazer, you kind of get used to having to make your own parts, lol.

Yeah ain't that the truth. Haha. If something isn't how you want it, make it how you want it.

Installed new sparkplug wires, distributor cap and rotor, and fuel injector assembly and upper intake gaskets.

Also Plasti-Dipped my stock radio antenna.

I totaled my blazer trying to avoid a buck and rolled it twice and slide 25 feet on my driver side. Right after putting 1500 into it. Im safe just upset. The roof rack took all of rollover.












Had to move on to another vehicle. Had to get an exploder

Oh man. That sucks. Glad are OK.

That is the thing with cars, it can be a bit of a gamble when we put money into them if we will get it out.

That is a complete bummer! I have always heard to try and stop but not veer off and just hit 'em. Supposedly less damage...

What kind of tires were you running? How was the evasive action handling? Tough roof rack,,,

This was a huge buck, antlers were long i tried to avoid it. I had 30x9.5x15 roadone aetheon mts. Great tires for price. Hoping to get mts for this. I just prefer them. The first set lasted 34k with 75% highway and me delivering food as well. Didnt make noise until i put 22k on them.

I actually missed the buck almost at a 20ft distance going about 35-30mph.
