Re: Brewing up some Pale Ale
New 5" springs, 2" blocks, notch, no limit shock relocator, porterbuilt adjustable panhard and maybe the CPP trailing arm crossmember if I have the time, but I'll have to cut up my exhaust if I'm gonna do that so it may be a project for a later date.

Re: Brewing up some Pale Ale
Anybody know what could have been welded to the frame here? One of the POs cut it off and left some remnants to be ground off.

Re: Brewing up some Pale Ale
Must have been some car springs out back before, this alone should improve the handling I would think.

Yeah, it was pretty bouncy, I knew something was not right when I took the top off and it lifted about 2-3 inches lol.

Re: Brewing up some Pale Ale
One step forward and 2 steps back lol. Got my springs, blocks and No Limit lower shock relocators mounted. The CPP notch is in, but the Porterbuilt panhard bar doesn't fit with the notch or the shock relocator..... And I already removed the stock panhard upper mount before I realized it, yeah. If anyone wants the PB panhard, powdercoated Wet Black, I taking offers hahaha. Anyway. Looks like I'll bolt up and run the stock bar until I've got time to order the one from Rob. Oh, the shocks I had would have been the right length, but the bushings are the wrong size for the mounts, so new shocks are added to the list. Anyway, I had to bolt up the shoes and set her down to see what ride height looked like, so here ya go.

Re: Brewing up some Pale Ale
Ok, so I dropped the tank tonight for access and found this. The vent line going to the filler neck had the sealant broke loose and the other small vent (which is plugged off along with the vent on the passenger side btw) had popped loose as well. What's the right thing to do here?

You've got a good looking Blazer here!

Re: Brewing up some Pale Ale
IMHO I would just replace the tank! To me the peace of mind of having a clean new tank would be worth the cost.

Re: Brewing up some Pale Ale
Just didn't know if this was common or not. The rest of the tank is solid w/o a bit of corrosion. Everything in the pic is just dirty undercoating. Wonder how long it'll take to get a new tank in!!

Re: Brewing up some Pale Ale
I've never done this, but I would just try to seal it up with some type of sealant that's resistant to gas and gas fumes. Given there's no corrosion, I don't think there's a need to drop $ on a new one.

Re: Brewing up some Pale Ale
Slow progress, little tedious things. But hey, the hoods on.

Re: Brewing up some Pale Ale
This has sure come along way and I think changing over to the 67-68 front clip will be well worth it in the end :metal:

Re: Brewing up some Pale Ale
Yup. Tank looks just like yours minis the rust. I pressure washed it plugged the small vent and sealed the vent nozzle using the putty repair kit. Seems to have done a bang up job. I'm cleaning out the inside of the tank, coating it and reinstalling it. I may order another but this should be just fine through cruising the coast.
