Re: My winter project
Those things are kind of a pain to install.

I found seat support patches from a truck to use. The floor mounting braces look close but the mounting holes are a bit different, I need to cut the blazer floor and move the braces to the new patches.

Re: My winter project
You are getting in the fun part of the build. Once you have the mechanical in good enough shape to drive it - you can repair the cosmetic and rust as you go.
Nice work so far! |

Now the front is off and I can see what I'm working with, the sway bar and these brackets are going. I plan to get a stock look with an minor lift. Anyone know if this harness for the smog pump.
Thanks 7D2N |

I got the windshield header today. I'm checking measurements and it looks pretty good so far and a lot better than what I have now.

Re: My winter project
Cool - new parts - will be watching you work with the header piece - needed it in the past and sold the truck before that part came out.
Some light reading for another member who used the same parts and found some challenges using them. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=655031 Not sure if the parts have changed any since that post is from 2015. Keep us posted on your progress with the new header pieces. |
Re: My winter project
I do not believe the smog pump had any electric hookup. I also believe that Morgan county is smog exempt for your truck. Am I wrong on that?

Re: My winter project
Looks good. Triple check everything, hard to change later.

Re: My winter project
Cutting the windshield frame off is a BIG leap of faith when you first do it. But once you have it repaired you will feel great. I nearly crapped myself when I stepped back after cutting mine off. But after grafting the donor frame back on, I felt a great boost of confidence.

Finished the windshield header and the top is bolted down to start floor work. I will say it's a bit time consuming but will work great.
