In the last couple days I did the inner and outer tie rods, complete UCA's, lower ball joints, idler arm, d/s axle oil seal, rear wheel seals and bearings, changed the fluid in the rear (obviously) and front diff., installed the new head unit ( a pioneer avh p1400 dvd receiver) and my old system, put 4 inch angled blocks in and some torsion keys then got it aligned. O and I got smaller tires very rewarding week!

 

I painted my bowtie black since I had the grille off to fix some projector related issues.


I really need to repaint my bumper one of these days.

 

well its not my blazer but i managed to bury my 08 arctic cat 800 tryin to pull a old rake out of a wetter then expected field and after diggin the tires down to the pegs i got my grandpas chev 1500 4x4 and tugged it out ..so the wheeler got out then went to move the truck and when i pulled the wheeler out filled the tires on the truck with mud then drove on very wet grass and .....buried that S.O.B to the dam frame and had to get a tractor to pull THAT out...all before 6 am....
rant over ..lol im goin back to bed lol

 

No using a torch? Where's the fun in that?

 

Did a tune up on the jimmy today, did not even have to take off the drivers tire to get the number 3 plug out, woo!

On a side note... I got AC delco plugs from rock auto.. all of them matched up but the number 1 plug wire, it was too short, not sure of why, but I looked really good at the old number 1 plug wire, and it was in great shape still, so I just used that one. next time just getting cap,rotor and plugs on rock auto, not wires just in case this happens again
its purring like a kitten now

also, another positive note, the old plugs looked great, no burning, nothing, just normal wear. happy about that.

 

Nope lol. But I do have some extremely thick bolts holding the hitch to the frame. Those bad boys are THICK.

 

Took my dash out, carpeted it, upgraded the gauge bulbs to LED's, and painted some pieces. working on the doors now.

 

Maybe not today but last week got my BDS, body lift, magnaflow exhaust, 35s and procomp 15s put on for a small fortune!

 

modified and installed a switch and **** for my glow gauges. turned out great...if I do say so myself!

Thursday and Friday I put some work into my '93 Jimmy. It got a new Delphi fuel pump, a new tank sender, new front pads and rotors, new distributor cap and rotor and some fresh AC-Delco spark plugs. It could use an alignment and a few other little details but overall it's in pretty darn good shape these days.
