Yeah it sucks, I was going to blacked out the grille and bowtie this weekend but not now. Went to the junkyard and they don't have any grille for it. Do you have the pictures of the Blazer when it debadged now? Can't wait to see it.

yup heres some pics. I cant decide if im going to keep the chevrolet emblem on the back. But for now its staying. I think it may look to plain without it. It looks MUCH cleaner without the blazer emblems on the side.

I pulled off my third brake light and tested it. Wired it in without the connectors and I have a third brake light for the first time since I've had my truck!

Fixed the inoperable wipers today and made attempt 1 at removing the rear shackles. The bolts didn't just freely spin out so it still sits stock since I didn't have the time to mess around cutting them and hunting new ones (wife needed to go). Another days project I guess... man I've been itching to get those dam tiny 235s off!

This might be a little late, but I wouldn't go with a k&n filter. I'd go with an aem dryflow filter. A lot less maintenance and performs better imo. Dryflow > Oiled any day. If you order the dryflow from advance online, use a coupon code to knock $20 or so dollars off and then pick it up in store. Saves you money and you get it quickly!

Picked up a 2nd gen center console from a truck with the dark gray interior and floor shifted transfer case, the lid isn't broken either.

Also got a comp/temp DIC for the overhead console and an auto-dim rear view mirror to replace the compass/temp mirror because it's too heavy and fell off over the weekend.

And the correct rear sway bar...The one that mounts to the front. Just have to get some new end links.
