These are the extended brake hoses that the owner sent me. I will work on them tomorrow weather permit.

I will just park this here.

I don’t know about Rough Country selling brake hoses. The owner is sending me all the parts as I need them. I refurbished a set of front outer bumper brackets. Some genius decided that they weren’t worthy. I also did a filthy job and hand packed the front wheel bearings. I love sealed hub...

I received the sway bar drop brackets from Rough Country No time to waste here in PA I went out and installed them immediately. More later. It is nice and dry out today. Extended brake hoses are next. I could choose anything I want to do on the front of this project but I am trying hard to...

I must be old. The only good bikes I ever owned were Yamahas prior to 1977 model year. When they went with mono shock I lost interest. The old 2 strokes from the 60cc to the single cylinder 500 ruled the trails. Nothing like getting hurled helplessly thru the woods on a 500 2 stroke. Be Safe. I...

That was 9 years ago that he responded to the thread. Let's see if he recalls the part number of the 2 prong HD flasher.

I personally prefer the driveshaft without the boot on it. I tend to over maintain so I never have any issues with stuff that requires grease and oil. That boot has always been an issue. I still have 1 OEM boot and last one I sold for $100. because someone wanted one. I bought them for a few...

The new aftermarket driveshaft have arrived. It looks great to me. The owner ordered it and sent it to me so I am not sure where it came from but it looks great with all new U joints. It is made over seas. Like I said in the past if it fits, and works that is what you get at this stage of the...

Drive Shaft 1984 Chevrolet K5 Blazer | A-Premium Does any have anything good or bad to say about this driveshaft?

I was looking thru some papers and books in the house and came across a Mitchell collision estimating guide I used back in the day. April 1997. Check out the pricing of Genuine GM parts fenders and inner aprons An entire cab although it was discontinued Genuine GM dash pads Tailgates were...

Check out the nice repair on this piece from the Wild Weasel, I think someone needs some welder training. This is the price that supports the upper core support and the lower core support and gives a place to attach the lower bumper to grill filler panel. This one is officially retired. I bought...

In my mailbox from a guy that specializes in K5 parts.

The calipers are toast

I was sad to see that the front driveshaft was toast. The slip joint boot is torn and full of rust and the tube is bent at more then one place. It was picked up with a loader from the side. also looks like it has not seen a grease gun since it left Flint GM. In case you need the Felpro part...

I replaced both tie rod ends, sanded and painted the cross bar with the new tie rod ends installed I moved along and done the same to the drag link ends. I have been making great progress today. I will post more.

If you are wondering the tie rod lock nuts are 1 5/16” and the left one is reverse thread. Take notes and learn before you burn.

I learned an expensive lesson. I guess it wasn’t” anyone fault. It has been a few years since I bought and used the big caulk tubes of The Right Stuff. I went to use it and it had cured inside the tube. The gears look good in the front axle. The center of the tube was still useable so not a...

And it is coming together outside in the nice weather. Still very dirty work but it is the hobby I choose. More progress later. Oh Joy.
