I'm finally ready to begin work on my blazer again. I painted it a couple summers ago, put everything back together and life happened and she sat in the garage. I've maintained the charge on the batteries, started and test ran every few weeks and drove it a couple times here and there but now...

I installed a new proportioning valve and failed at bleeding the brakes. I think I tripped the shuttle valve inside the proportioning valve. Looks like I'm taking stuff back apart later this week to get this junk back on the road.

That is a great looking engine! I said it before- I can't wait to see more progress!!

That tool looks pretty cool though. I kinda want one. :-o

Doesn’t seem that bad, almost seems easier to pull the axle and work off a bench versus laying in the floor. I’ll put it back together and see if it has issues. I’ll cross that bridge when I get it it. We used it have a great off-road shop just west of me. He did transmission, transfer case...

I am. I did them a few years ago but while I’m in there, they are getting replaced. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ball joints. I swear every joint on this thing is loose. The upper ball joint had a bit of play so I’m doing both. Trying to get this thing tuned up before I get the new tires and an alignment. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I can sympathize, our local 4 Wheel Parts is worthless. Unless you drive a new Jeep JK, they don't have much for you. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'll probably exchange it. I don't particularly enjoy going to Harbor Freight. I'm a staunch believer in the "buy once, cry once" philosophy. I try to buy the best tools I can afford- even some I can't. Harbor Freight has it's place though. I did paint my truck with a $15 paint gun. Sent from...

I replaced my transmission mounts and the steering stabilizer on the Blazer today. I was surprised at how easy the trans mounts came out and went back in. Like a breeze! I fought with the inside-most stud on the steering stabilizer, the bottom nut just wouldn't come off, it came off with a...

This place is a wealth of advice and knowledge. Everyone here is pretty cool and usually willing to help a fellow member. Good luck. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Cucvrus is spot on. Access them from the bottom between the frame rails. Long handle ratchet with a deep well socket should do the trick. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I used -8 hose and fittings. That size has a close inside dimension to the OEM lines so I figured it would be best. See post #18, I did a write up with part numbers and pictures. I might go back tonight and add a few more pictures...

I made some trick custom oil cooler lines today. I did a detailed write up in the custom oil cooler thread if anybody is interested. I also reinstalled the drivers mirror, brush guard and bumpers, topped off fluids and washed out the cab. It was the first time I had her out on the road in...

I started my truck today lol, I've had to back burner the project for a couple months because you know, life happens. Hopefully going to get back on track in the next couple months. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
