Put my new exhaust on today. I had a 40 series flowmaster and the stock tail pipe before but the tail pipe rusted out on me. I changed it out with a Gibson cat back system. I have to say I liked the sound of the Flowmaster better but I like that the gibson is quieter in the cab. So I guess it evens out. You can also see my new shocks in pic 2, monroe load helpers that I put on a few weeks ago. You can also see evidence of all the salt they use on the roads here. Everything was painted under there last summer

Did the overhead console upgrade to the DIC and Homelink controls.

I love this site lol, didn't even know that other blazers had anything other than temp and compass till i got here.

Used the blazer to tow the bronco out of the woods

After a mud run I stalled the bronco since it was low on gas
I tryed to start her again and she wouldn't crank

Pos terminal got hot ... Possibly bad terminals ? they look in bad shape

krunk357, I would be very interested to hear a little more about your upgrade. I've been wanting to upgrade to the DIC with the econo gauge but was told it can't be done on my 2002 blazer. Are they wrong?

It's fairly easy on a 2002, once you get the right display. I unsubscribed the threads with instructions after I got mine working but they're out there somewhere. You just need to find one from ... 98 or newer I think, run a single wire to the diag port by the ebrake, swap a connector, and you're set.

blazer ran a little funny today

While accelerating the motor would rev up and down and would repeat its self while i had my foot steady on the gas

checked all fluids and I found a wire that was loose on the distributor cap cause when i pushed it in .... I heard the click

hope this fixes it
