Re: Jeep Trailblazer SS

Looks like you got to work after I left. Meant to bring it up when I was there but how much room do you have in front of the radiator? Thinking mount the radiator on the front side of the core support for the fan clearance if you had the room. I’ll let you know when I get the parts off the bravada tomorrow

I found a solution to my lower radiator hose dilemma. I bought a 180 degree stainless "U" pipe and plumbed it inline to solve my issue with the hose necks being at an odd angle. I'll secure the pipe with an "L" bracket and a p-clamp. There's about 1/4 inch of Clearance between the lower radiator hose and the serpentine belt. I'll keep an eye on that to make sure it doesn't rub when the tensioner flexes under acceleration.

I fitted the front clip and the hood, secured the inner fender wells to the core support. I threw the grille on just for the pictures. I know it's not ready to drive yet, but seeing it come together is getting me more and more excited about my progress.
