I know...I know...been a while since I've done anything to the Blazer, but now that the kids are going back to school and the landscaping, deck building, swimming and all around summer fun is winding down, I'm going to shift gears and get something done.
While getting the frame ready for blasting, I noticed a broken shackle up front, so it's new shackles, bushings all around and while I'm at it, a shackle flip in the rear. Any advice...I've found ORD and DIY4X. After adding everything up, the difference between the 2 was $2. Anyone have any pros or cons for either company?
I also found a rear upper shock mount that has been "fixed" by the PO. That has to go as well, what would be the easiest way to replace that be? The bolt itself has been welded for whatever reason, so it looks like I will have to remove the entire mount to change it. Haven't spent much time on that though.
Any advice would be helpful. Thanks in advance.
