Another semi update
Alright so got the Blazer painted last Spring but the body shop I have it at also outsources some mechanical work. So i ask if they could help with some things liiiike:
-Custom Trans cooler lines for my 700r4 swap
-Cut down and reflare my stainless rear diff brake hardline to accept the disc hoses
-Set rear diff pinion angle and weld on the spring perches for my 14 bolt swap
-Start my engine (my buddy Mike had trouble with his West Coast Engines 350 and since i got my 383 from the same place I just wanted the shop to start it) up and ensure it at least would run
-Reinstall my NP205 i pulled to fix a leak, I bought a tcase ebrake so he needed to machine it down .25" to fit under the floor pan, and then measure for driveshafts
-Change my front axle gear ratio to 4.56 to match the rear
-theres probably more but this is the big stuff
At the same time the body shop freshened up my top and hatch, welded up a hickey roll bar kit i bought on ebay a while back, replaced my windshield...
Anyways. I told them i want it back mid April. and they're making it happen. Top got mounted. They're going to drill holes for the mirrors and install the strikers and do final panel adjustments.
Here's pics:
Also does anyone know why my pics post sideways?
