DSM guy with a Blazer
Hey guys, my name is Cj. I live in Marion NC, and my wife and I just picked up a black 94 S10 Blazer Tahoe edition, that I call Darth Blazer. Eventually I will plastidip the wheels and grill, along with anything shiny, haha. So far, I love it. Its got good height, and it goes through the woods pretty nicely, haha. The 4wd works very well, and the 4lo pulls like a beast. So I've got a few questions:
Are there any companies that make affordable brush guards? Is there a front end conversion? If I google 94 Blazer the first picture has different headlights and grill than mine. Are there any cheap BPUs? Anything to watch out for, bugs etc.? Is there a way to tighten up the steering? My steering wheel is pretty sloppy. Thanks in advance for any help! Cj. |

Welcome to blazer forum.
As for the steering, the steering box was found to be defective in several models, including the Suburban and S10's. Replacing the steering box with a remanufactured unit is really the only solution, however their is a worm gear on top of the box you can tighten which helps slightly. Doa search on here and you will find a few threads on the topic which will help. I have the same issue, and it sucks, buts it liveable. Safari Light bars are the cheapest at under $200. Brush Gaurd typically run around $350-800. Check Ebay as their is a couple on their. If you just want to mount lights, go with the Safari Bar. If your getting a brush guard make sure it mounts to the frame, and not the skid plate location for added durability. |
Thanks for all the welcomes guys! I've been searching and found some solutions. Today I worked on Darth Blazer a little. New idle air valve, idles perfect. New vent selector switch, still not 100% though. It only blows low and high, but thats better than just low like it was, haha. And changed a turn signal/parking light bulb, ahaha.
