Just bought 98 zr2 blazer and LUV IT!

The guy that

sold it to me

thought it was no good anymore.
Fix door pin, tightened and aligned front wheels because the cam bolts WERE LOOSE(i guess that would make it feel horrible driving huh?) replaced one front wheel hub.
Some shocks to make it ride like new, fluids of course.Oh also found nice rebuilt valve body on ebay for 90$ to stop that torque conv slip.
AND BAM Im the proud new owner of a nice zr2!
I bet that guy still thinks he ripped me for $1500

I would like to give thanks to this forum for past post that addressed issues that
I came across with this truck(The search function works well)

Welcome and congrats on cheap fixes on a cool (cheap) truck! I wish I'd have gotten that good of a deal on my Z. Bought for 1600 and had to put a trans in it already.
