Default got my Blazer a week and a half ago

Bought for $1500 with 112k miles on her! Nothing mechanically wrong that I can tell! Knock on wood. Tires were bald. So I bought some used 255 70 Road Huggers. And replaced the hatch actuator as it was broke. Topped off the fluids and changed the oil. Stock so far except whats in the sig. Comments and suggestion with where and what to do next welcomed! I'm thinking K&N FIPK and a Flowmaster Super 44?!

Tint and fix your headlights.

Good find! Have a gander through the forum and you will see what to look for as far as maintenance, common problems, etc.

More specifically the tabs on the back of the lights that fit into the slots are not in said slots which causes them to be angled skyward. Pull the two tabs that are holding the light in directly up and out, readjust the lights so the tabs on the back of the lights fit into those slots, then put the tabs you took out back in. I know I am a visual person so I will take pics when it is daytime to explain better.

Looks good!

And yeah, your lights are definitely not installed right.
