Even a BFH doesnt help. =\

Also tried two different spring compressors and neither worked.
I saw a post about this problem somewhere on here, and I cant for the life of me think of which one it was. I will search around and see if I am able to find it.

Default Expedition

I didn't do anything on the Blazer and haven't in a while cause money in that area but I did pull the rear windshield whipper off my mothers 98 expedition. I was reading up on a page and it showed me a quick fix for why the blade wouldn't work so I figured I would try it out. Turns out it didn't work and the motor is most likely bad...oh well.

It's not horrible but its not amazing either lol!! That being said it does have a bad strut on the front drivers side. I'm getting all four of them replaced soon though so that should help. Also the tires aren't bad but they are just your standard everyday type tire and they are about 5 years old. They are also getting replaced soon
Overall I like it though! Plenty of room for the family, looks pretty nice, oh and did I mention I don't have to spend a dime to drive it!!!
