Would you hold a six shooter to its.... engine... bay? Or put one bullet in the six shooter and play russian roulette with the blaze? haha, that would be crazy, kind sir.

 

let's see what i got done,
Well she got towed yesterday to the shop and this is what i got,
Fuel Pump, Starter, Front left upper ball joint, A/c Compressor and filter and an oil change.
2800.00 later i got a good running truck, lol. Good thing i had an extended warranty on it, they paid about 2200 of the bill.

 

ordered a bunch of parts from diy4x.com and they should be here within 3 weeks. so that gives me plenty of time to take off the stock spring hangers. i just need to get a good air hammer to chisel off the rivets. anyways i got the shackle flip kit, new u-bolts, and new spring plates that the ubolts bolt down on. should be nice and new and ride nice too. all for just over 3 bills so not that expensive too.

 

Today i installed drum brakes for the 1st time..

Man....that sucked! took me 3 hours of slow studying etc and with my haynes manual. Got everything on then touched the brake pedal to look at the right side to see if they move....I forgot i had the drum off the other side and messed up my wheel cylinder. So $10 and a HOUR MORE later all is done. braking seems to greatly improve.



Never again. I remember why people hate drum brakes.

 

Here is my video of my '95 S10 Blazer. When I turned the key on then only 6 lights came on the dash and was wonder if I am missing any lights or not? I am posting more videos but only can do one post at a time.

Here is other video of my '95 Blazer. This problem is when I turned the key off the RPM gauge won't go all the way to zero until I turn the key on then off again. So what cause this problem?

got the back shocks done today, passenger side was easy, drivers side had the bottom bolt rusted fast to the metal sleeve inside the shock bushing. ended up using a sawzall to cut through the bolt, must have been a hardend bolt, took 3 blades to cut through. replaced with a 1/2 x 3" bolt and now has all 4 new shocks. took it for a drive and wow, was defintly worth the $20 per shock. and after 190,000 its surprizing the stock shocks still had the gas charge left in them.

 

$20 per shock? Was it those yelllow shocks? I have those on mine. 2 went bad 4 months later i got em.They have warranties but still. replacing the rears suck.
